If someone top-posts, then you should follow up in-kind. Going back and forth from one to the other makes for a very difficult read. I personally prefer top-posting - when viewing emails from my Treo, for example, the text on top shows up first and does not require me to scroll down - and if I've already read the original, why would I want to re-read it when viewing the reply anyway? - Jeff On Jan 18, 2005, at 11:34 AM, David Vincent wrote:

Please do not post links to sites that require registration. Some people dont want to let marketers have their information and its rude to send links that dont work anonymously.
