In this list, the convention is to post replies at the end (with some
rare exceptions), or interspersed when appropriate, and to omit parts no
longer relevant.
The motivation of bottom posting like this: is that people get to see
the context before the reply, AND emails don't end up getting longer &
longer as people reply at the beginning forgetting to trim the now
irrelevant stuff at the end.
