Abstract: A communication device and method for displaying messages, such as e-mail messages, is provided. When the message is lengthy, containing content from one or more replicated previous messages (such as earlier messages copied in a subsequent reply or forwarding message), the replicated previous messages are typically appended at the end of the message in reverse chronological order. The device identifies the replicated previous messages by delimiters included in the message, and displays the various delimited segments of the message in a reverse order so that the replicated previous messages can be read in the order in which they were transmitted, without requiring the user to read through the entire message from beginning to end. The device may automatically scroll through the content, or may page through the content in response to user commands.
