    I think this issue would normally be avoided by relaying through a mail rela
    that doesn't rewrite the From header field (e.g. Vertrauen's mail.synchro.ne
    as suggested in https://wiki.synchro.net/howto:relay_smtp) . What you're > RS>suggesting seems like a reasonable work-around though.

    A: Because it destroys the logical flow of a thread of comments,
    and makes it difficult to keep up with a conversation.

    Q: Why do so many people object to top posting?

    A: Writing your reply to a message above what you are referring to
    rather than below it.

    Q: What is "top posting"?


    ... Gone crazy, be back later, please leave message.

    Since I don't know and I am fairly new here, I will refrain from any sarcastic response I would normally give. but thank you your highness.

    You're welcome. Generally, when you're new at something, it's good
    practice to observe and follow what you see others doing. Have you seen
    many others using the "top-posting" style...? MmmmHmmm....
