But frankly, please do not discourage anyone from top-posting. This would deprive me of a valuable indicator to sort my emails. I get 200+ emails a day, some of which do not even land in my inbox (some people are culled by my killfile, I think there is even one on this list), and I have to have a way to sort out those who are clueful enough that I should spend (the time I have to answer mails) on them. Top-posting is a _perfect_ way to lable those who are not in that group. I just cannot read every mail I get. Please, do not deprive me of that indicator.
