Over-quoting includes nesting of previous replies identified by '>': >>> >> > For example: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/pipermail/ilugc/2005-October/021290.html The following is an example of a reply to a digest where the user has top-posted, and forgotten to remove the irrelevant text: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/pipermail/ilugc/2005-October/021243.html So, one hopes to see some text at the bottom, and scrolls all the way down to the end of the message only to realize that the user has top-posted. The following is an example of a reply to a digest where the user has bottom-posted, and forgotten to keep only the relevant text: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/pipermail/ilugc/2005-November/022002.html In both cases, the subject lines haven't been changed, and there is a trail of messages that are irrelevant.
