Any post where the reply comes before the item to which you are

So, here you have again top-posted by putting the text you are
replying to below your reply :

In long replies it is sometimes polite to include introductory text
*after* the "On some day at some time, someone wrote" header, but
most text (even things as minimal as '+1' or 'me too') should still
go after the text to which you are replying.

Unfortunately, gmail takes the microsoft approach and makes it
inconvenient to do this in its browser interface.
