[CentOS] Top Posting

[Robert Tate]

The problem with bottom posting is that a lot (most) people don't pay any attention to the 4th line of you link you point to below. We have to scroll through page after page of old postings to get the new information.  I'm quoting that line below (the bold is mine):

"In addition to bottom-posting, it is customary to leave out non-relevant parts of the message with regard to the reply, and to put the reply directly beneath the quoted relevant parts."
