Outlook does it this way not to be contrary, but for an obvious reason: it works better for the people who use it.

If you're involved in a discussion, and you're tracking it all -- because if you don't you're fired -- you want to see the most up-to-date addition to the discussion, and for the 5% of the time you need reminding, you can scroll down. The immediate previous bit will probably remind you, and if not, the bit before that, etc. It's much more useful for that sort of discussion than bottom-posting. And I'm not speaking as a Windows-brainwashed suit -- I've been using Unix tools since 1984 and email since 1975.
