Hear! Hear!
I think i'm not losing track. But plowing through top posting without
editing is a darned nuisance, especially when i see one or two words
top posted over 5 or more old messages.
Certain people do this consistently. I've written to some of them off
list, and they've variously claimed they can't or they don't need to,
or they have expressed some surprise that it is happening. I guess
they don't read the messages they've posted.
Even with webmail, such as gmail etc. trimming *can* be done, and it
really doesn't take all that long. Mostly it just needs the will and
the courtesy to do it.
