I would like to delete the excess images, but that deletes the reply post also. (unless I leave 1 photo behind)
Dale -- My experience does not bear out this assertion.?

If you click on the "Message" button under a photo in the Emailed Photos folder, it will bring up the underlying post. If you select Edit Message from the More menu, it will switch to edit mode. Tick the Delete checkboxes under any images you don't want, and save. Note that this will automatically send a notification to the OP that his post has been edited.

Or alternatively, just delete any undesirable images directly from the Emailed Photos folder. This approach will NOT send a notification.

I don't normally reply from the website and I looked at the reply options there and I didn't see an easy way to stop the quoted text from being included unless it is by the show/hide quoted text.
By default, using the web interface, nothing is carried forward into your reply. You have to proactively click the "quote whole post" button (far left icon on the menu bar) to get it to do that.?"Show/hide quoted text" is for viewing purposes only and has no bearing on what ultimately appears in a reply.

If the default is to hide and you need to affirmatively click "show" to make this problem happen, my users must be doing this and getting them to stop should be the solution.?
More likely, many of your user's email clients "quote whole post" as a default. And yes, getting them to stop is more than a little problematical. My iPhone users tell me that it is simply not possible to avoid it, using Apple Mail. I am skeptical of that, but as long as they believe it, what can you do?
