I don't think you are in the minority at all. As far as I can tell, Email messages, like so many other things are in the eye of the beholder. Some people like to have the original message at the top, some don't. In my pinion, when I am reading Email with a PC, I don't mind skipping quickly past the original, but when reading with my BrailleNote, I would rather have the new information at the top of the message and then scroll down only if I need to brush up on the original. I hope this makes some sense and isn't too confusing.

Hi, it's Rhonda with a grin, grin! I made this same comment last week. My reason for the comment was that there is no way to tell where one message ends, and the other begins. If I don't recall the previous message, I would rather scan down to find it, but since I do remember, I'd rather see the new messages first.
