I've seen various and sundry others like this one, and I can't really
google it since I don't have a clue what to call that.
It is usually called an attribution line or something like that. I use
mutt (a text terminal mail client), and in its config I have:
set attribution = "Once upon a time, %n <%a> said:"
The "%n" is the full name of the sender and "%a" is the email
address.
I got bored with the normal attribution line one time and changed to
that. Looking back, I started using that in early 1996; maybe it is
time for something new!
