  SmartRe for Gmail™ is a simple Chrome extension that makes Gmail replies cleaner and easier to read by formatting quoted text and original-message headers.
  
  🚀 What It Does
  SmartRe for Gmail automatically formats the quoted part of a Gmail reply. It removes visual clutter from quoted text and rewrites Gmail’s one-line reply header into a readable Outlook-style “Original message” header.
  
  It is designed for people who frequently reply to emails in Gmail and prefer cleaner, more structured reply formatting.
  
  ✨ Key Features
  • Clean quoted text in Gmail replies
  • Remove the visible left quote bar and extra spacing in rich text replies
  • Remove leading quote markers in Gmail plain text reply mode
  • Rewrite Gmail’s one-line reply header into an Outlook-style “Original message” header
  • Add sender, date, subject, and To lines when they can be detected
  • Keep Gmail’s quote structure intact in rich text mode
  • Turn quote formatting and header rewriting on or off from the popup
  • English and Japanese support
  
  💡 Why You’ll Love It
  Gmail replies can become visually noisy, especially when quoted content and reply headers are included.
  
  SmartRe for Gmail makes replies easier to read by cleaning up the quoted section and presenting the original message information in a familiar format.
  
  It is useful for:
  • People who prefer Outlook-style reply headers
  • Users who often reply to business emails
  • Users who want cleaner quoted text in Gmail
  • Anyone who wants replies to be easier to scan and read
  
  ⚙️ How It Works
  When you click Reply in Gmail, SmartRe automatically opens the hidden quoted content and formats it in the reply draft.
  
  In rich text mode, it keeps Gmail’s blockquote structure while removing the visible left quote line and extra spacing.
  
  In plain text mode, it removes leading quote markers from quoted lines.
  
  If enabled, it also rewrites the original message header into a readable multi-line format.
  
  🔒 Privacy & Security
  SmartRe for Gmail runs inside your browser.
  
  It does not send Gmail message contents, profile email addresses, account display names, extension settings, or any other user data to the developer’s servers or to third-party services.
  
  The extension uses the signed-in Chrome profile email address only to add the To line when rewriting the reply header.
  
  No account or login is required.

  2. Open Gmail.
  3. Click Reply on an email.
