This shouldn't take much effort, and would be soo useful!

TIA :)

 Edit: At present, the closest you can get is through a reply template:

Title Custom Header
set To = "~r"
set Subject = "Re: ~s"
string fullsender "" "" 0 Address
string sendername "" "" 0
set variable fullsender = "~f"
extract text fullsender sendername
insert "On ~kDate~, ~vsendername~ wrote:~z"
insert "~z"
include message 0 quoted noheaders

which results in

The date/time format is taken "as is" from the original message's header, but at least you don't need to manually look up the timezone in the raw message text.

As stated the template is only partial solution because the reply is addressed only to the name & address in the From field.  This bypasses the Custom Reply Menu where you can conveniently send the reply to names & addresses in any of the following fields, e.g. From, Reply to,  CC, To, Sender.

Add an option to the Custom Reply Header menu to include the GMT offset from the original message.

Edit2: Better restrict the message inclusion somewhat, i.e.

include message 200 quoted noheaders

I just got stuck when Pegasus tried to include and quote ">" an entire 20 MB attachment as if it were plain text.
