Well definitel trim - just leave enough behind so a reader can figure out what
your are replying too.  Maybe a critical link or two.

Definitely trim the boiler plate at the bottom. You wouldn’t believe what that
boilerplate and links look like by the time I receive them.  My post office re-
routes links through some kind of protective site that turns them into complete
gibberish, so I can’t even tell what the original was.
