[top posting&  trimming ]

I think part of the problem is that some email clients like gmail
webmail help persist the bad behaviour. They default with top posting
replies and sending HTML emails. I have requested that they change the
defaults, but haven't gotten any response. It isn't a big surprise
though.

Actually, it /is/ configurable in gmail.

You can change the default to text, but bottom posting requires a
greasemonkey script :S

Yes, but the fact that you have to delete the first (empty lines) is also a good reminder to trim the quoted part. After all; you have to scroll the same amount of text down as the readers will ;).
