Hi All,
It would be preferable to have a consistent approach to posting; those
who have a Linux/Unix background prefer bottom posting because it reads
better, but Windows decided to establish top posting and because of its
dominance of the early PC market Windows users just accepted it. I have
trimmed the thread because Patrick's remarks were worth demonstrating.
Most email clients apart from "Lookout" will provide a setting for
bottom posting, it could be set up in the user's computer for this list,
and do what you like for the rest. Perhaps some encouragement of top
posting could be written into the place where subscriptions to the list
are found.
