    Don't include the email you're responding to then it's no longer top
    posting, plus you can still read the archive easily.

    Bottom posting is just as bad as top posting when you include
    the entire message

    Usually there is no need to include previous emails, it's a waste of
    space. The only time including the previous emails automatically is
    good is when you want to see a previous conversation thread
    before they included you. I see lots of information leakage from
    Outlook users this way.

    Is this done now?

    Next thread, red or blue text?
