Unfortunately, at work, I have to use Outlook - corporate policy for this
particular site. I don't have a choice.
With the way Outlook quotes, it's far more intuitive to top post, especially
as it puts your sig up there at the top of the text when you hit reply.
At home, however, I never top post. My Windows MUA is Turnpike - it quotes
wonderfully and allows me to post inline.
I'll apologise for my top-posting to the list now and get it out of the way.
As a way of penance, I'll try to make any contributions to the list as
helpful and clear as possible! Oh yes - apologies for the disclaimer stuff
the gateway here tags on the end of all messages, that's out of my hands and
I can't get rid of it.
At least I trim and don't quote *everything* :-)
BTW, corporate policy also dictates I use Word as the text editor - does it
spew out HTML or is it text - I have it set to text, but it's difficult to
tell just what it looks like when it finally leaves here.

Actually I find it quite annoying if following a thread to have to
scroll to
the bottom of each and every post. I like top posting, but I
usually follow
suit with what the thread is doing. If I'm the first replier, then
it
depends if I'm posting throughout, tho due to the repeat of this
conversation
I mostly try bottom posting. I wouldn't want to fart in public or
use the
wrong fork...
