The problem stems from Google Groups beta's interface.  At the end of
every post there is a 'Reply' link that does not include quoted text by
default.  One has to click on 'show options' and then on the 'Reply'
link that subsequently appears.  Then quoted text is included.

Unfortunately, the interface is not properly handling line wrapping of
quoted text which is not evident in the compose window (one has to
preview the post first).
