I'm sorry, but I have to point out that this comment is complete
rubbish. To say that the way one posts illustrates how e-mail works
is ludicrous.

"Top posting" and the whole top posting debate is a matter of
preference/logic. The reason most people tend to prefer people
posting at the bottom is that it follows the logical flow of
'conversation' so you can see which text is being responded to.
Posting at the top means that the reader has to scroll down to see
what's being responded to, which although inconvenient and seemingly
frustrating to others, is NOT incorrect and does NOT have anything to
do with how e-mail works.

Unless, of course, you can provide me with some form of RFC that
illustrates how top posting breaks MTA's?

Rich.
