A3: Please. Q3: Should I avoid top posting on this mailing list? A2: Because, by reversing the order of a conversation, it leaves the reader without much context, and makes them read a message in an unnatural order. Q2: Why is top posting irritating?
A1: It is the practice of putting your reply to a message before the quoted message, instead of after the (trimmed) message. Q1: What is top posting? [Yes, this is a re-run, but it needed saying. Also, please trim as much as possible from messages you are quoting in replies, keeping only the sections needed to maintain context for the reader.] -- Perry E.
