I totally agree with Dave but that is just my opinion of course. In
fact, if you happen to be on either the WDD design or css-discuss lists
(and those struggling to learn css really should join) you'll get
politely scolded for top posting (and sometimes NOT so politely!).
Trimming of course certainly does help, and often leaving the entire
contents of the previous email intact, whether you bottom or top post,
makes readability difficult. 

Truly though, there really is no right or wrong answer on this one, it's
more a matter of preference. Microsoft's default has definitely made top
posting the *norm* however.

Here is an argument *for* top posting, though as already stated I'm
certainly not an advocate:
