In other words it's easier for you to reach your Delete key when you top
post than when you bottom post ???

Ok, I have bottom posted, and have trimmed the end of the message. But this
was a little text only, while the header of this message is still there, and
it is bigger.
Well, I said that is harder to delete the head of the message and then go to
the end and delete the tail also.
That's why is easier to trim the message when top posting.
It would be easier for everyone if everyone would use Outlook Express and
not many other email clients that use a different style of headers they put
in the message, or that put the cursor in other positions by default.
But most users use Outlook Express as the email client, and not other
programs...
And this not only because it is included by default in Windows, but because
for some features it is the best program, like the accessibilitty for the
blind for example.
