Let's not get into a flame war over this. I belong to and run a number
of listservs going back nearly 20 years. Many lists I am on (or have
been on) have the "though shalt not top post" commandment. There is a
sound reasoning for it. While I don't personally care whether a person
top posts or bottom posts, it has been the rule on this list as long as
I can remember. To specifically mention another list, I used to be on
the SuSE Linux English list that had the same rule.
