While many email programs, such as T-Bird give you a choice of either
top or bottom posting, some email programs can be set up on a per folder
basis. When I reply in my Fedora list folder, my cursor is positioned at
the bottom, but in some other folders I have it set up to top post. I
don't remember where or how I set this up, but that is the way I have
mine set up, and have had since shortly after I adopted T-Bird. I also
know that Claws could do this. I don't know what capabilities other
email programs have.
