I don't want to get into top-/bottom-/medium-/whatever-posting debate (I am already in one flamewar about that on our internal list :-)), but needless to say, that there are *some* sensible people who in *some* scenarios (like personal reply in the firm, where top-posting is standard, or when forwarding inline) prefer top-posting (see links covering the discussion from both sides and IMHO pretty well on <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_Posting#External_links>). It would be quite useful IMHO to be able to set up some configuration options making in some scenarios default top-posting and in some others bottom-posting (unfortunately, there is probably no way how to enforce trimming of the previous messages :-)). So for example Reply-to-list should certainly lead to the bottom-posting, but useer could be able to configure that Reply-to-author, Forward-inline, or Reply-to-all (or all of them) lead to the top-posting. I was able to make such configuration with mutt (obviously, you can do anything in mutt ;-)), but it would be really lovely to have this option in Evolution as well. Does it make any sense to you? Matěj P.S.: Being this my first post to this NG/list, let me introduce myself. I was for many years happy user of KDE (and KMail, and before that mutt), but when I switched to my current job, I had to switch to Gnome. Although (as good user of KDE ;-)) I did not expect much, I found the experience of using Gnome surprisingly pleasurable one (with some exceptions, but of course other exceptions would have to be taken from the general pleasure of using KDE as well). Now, I would like to understand better Gnome and to help to make it even better (that's my job, after all, as well). -- http://www.ceplovi.cz/matej/blog/, Jabber: ceplma<at>jabber.cz GPG Finger: 89EF 4BC6 288A BF43 1BAB 25C3 E09F EF25 D964 84AC ..every Man has a Property in his own Person.
