 ### Fixes
 
+- Telegram/streaming: keep partial preview streaming enabled for plain reply-to replies, disabling drafts only for real native quote excerpts that require Telegram quote parameters. Fixes #73505. Thanks @choury.
 - Config: log the "newer OpenClaw" version warning once per process instead of once per config snapshot read. (#75927) Thanks @romneyda.
 - Telegram/message actions: treat benign delete-message 400s as no-op warnings instead of runtime errors, so stale or already-removed messages do not create noisy delete failures. Fixes #73726. Thanks @Avicennasis.
 - Telegram: split long default markdown sends and media follow-up text into safe HTML chunks, so outbound messages over Telegram's limit no longer fail as one oversized Bot API request. Fixes #75868. Thanks @zhengsx.
