FYI, the policy in this list is to avoid top posting and bottom post instead.
Plus: trimming the original content, so that not the whole email thread is repeated in the quote.

While I'm happy to comply, I disagree with trimming/editing the thread. Certainly made sense when networks were slower and MUAs were less sophisticated, but these days I prefer using a MUA which is able to fold the original content and keep all the content in the message. This reduces confusion, misunderstanding and incorrect attribution arising from poor editing and makes it easy to reference the full discussion in one spot rather than having to go back through messages putting it all back together. YMMV.
