I totally disagree. Most people will have followed the thread and know what
was said. If you haven't followed the thread then you can read by looking
bellow.

Call me lazy but I hate having to scroll past everything that I've already
read. Especially when it's someone's config!

Cheers,

Jon

you got it nik.. top posting is starting a reply at the top of the
email.  It's bad mainly because people trying to help you need to see
all of the dialogs that have gone on to be able to give you the best
direction and your reply at the top won't make sense w/o what's under
it.
