[pmwiki-users] please don't use formatted email

[DaveG]

I actually prefer top-posted replies, or embedded replies. No scrolling 
required (I use Thunderbird). Not sure how other clients represent 
top/bottom posts.

It seems to me that peoples preferences for email, top or bottom 
replies, even HTML to some extent, are dictated by choice of email 
client. The reality is we all use different clients, and so will all 
want different things.
