Like you do, I also use a threaded email editor and like you do, I also see how obvious it is that top posting is the most natural way to go,. But... After arguing my face blue (actually my fingers sore), I came to the conclusion that "they" have as valid reasons to bottom post as we have to top post, (Most of the reasons having to do with them using brain dead email clients, or not saving the threads). One point they do have though: "When searching the internet, and viewing via the web, bottom posting make more sense than top posting." Unfortunately, the worse that can be done is to mix top and bottom posting. And there is more of them, than us... So we conform to them....
