Greetings All
I'd rather people top-post as I'd like to read the latest info without

Besides the email clients I have used use top-post as a default
What a pity we can't read mail the way we all prefer.

And there are die hard bottom posters here as well. What makes the worst
botch up of things is when individuals go "damn mailing list convention,
i'm doing it my way" (hear echos of Cartman, anyone?). A mix of top and
bottom posting makes a real pigs-ear of the thread as this post
intentionally shows. The list etiquette guidelines actually promote
niether, advising you should intersperse your answers after the
relevant point:

Because of the nature of a mailing list and the way that many questions
are multifaceted, this advice makes sense. We therefore need to set
aside personal preferences in favour of conformity to make clarity the
winner.
