The key, I've learned, is to teach them about bottom-posting. I have occassionally used bottom-posting with contacts without warning, and that has led to some confusion. I now try to remember to put "see my responses in-line below" as the first line of the message.

Yes, I add a line like that sometimes if it's long. However the other thing to do is to trim/snip heavily so you really do only leave the required context.

To further avoid confusion I make sure to always insert one blank, unquoted line between the quote and my reply. So even if someone uses a client that HTML formats blockquotes with vertical lines on the left, there is always the indicator in form of a vertical gap so my reply will not easily being overlooked.
