Prior message copied in replies

So I know I'm probably missing something pretty basic here.? Is there a setting that allows a reply to a previous message include either the first few lines or the full body of the previous message?? If so, where is it located and is that set by individuals or can it be set by moderator/owner?

In our new list, we've had a few instances of long threads with multiple confusing replies, like "I can do that" or "Yes, I agree" that have no connected context.

I believe this is email specific, that is, email program specific. I can select part of the mesage let's say and when hitting reply it will quote ?it and I ca reply at the bottom or top if I wanted to.

When replying online, there are a couple of options.? You can select a bit of the post that you want to quote, as I did here, before hitting the Reply button and it will be copied in.? If you want to quote the entire post, you can select the little talk bubble at the top left of the Reply box after it opens to have it inserted.? I don't remember a way to set anything as a default though.
