Is there a reason why you top-post? Usually for email lists top-posting is discouraged as it makes it harder to understand which part of the email you are replying to. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style has some good information about the different posting styles. I think the best quote is: "was the original Usenet standard invented and used years before the existence of the WWW and the widespread public use of e-mail and the Internet in general".
Really inline posting is the best way to post replies as it is like a conversation, and you are answering the questions or asking questions about specific parts of the email. Thanks, Andrew Pinski PS if you do a search of "top-posting" on gcc.gnu.org you will find more people complaining about the use of top posting too.
