Did you read what you wrote? Are you seriously suggesting that top
posting is the way to go for SOME people on SOME devices?
Email to SMS is not relevant. Anyone who signs up to a mailing list on
such a gateway gets what they paid (through the a$$) for.

I'm replying from a mobile device and inline PGP sigs annoy me more
than HTML. Same would have been true on my previous phone.
That's not to say I'm going to start posting in HTML because, well,
that'd be rude.
Just like top posting is.
