PS - The best part of Thunderbird vs OE is I don't have to listen to
everyone complain about me top posting.

I'm curious about something. If you are working on a document in your word
processor, and then shut down the computer and come back to the doc
tomorrow, do you add your new work at the top of the document?


Tell, me. When you are involved in a conversation with twenty people
at a party, do you repeat the entire previous conversation before
adding your new thoughts? Does the next person to speak then repeat
the whole previous conversation, including what you just said, before
adding their new thoughts?

Whether you post at the top or the bottom, you generally leave some or all
of the preceding text, which is analogous to other people in a conversation
having already heard what was said before. The reason to post at the bottom
is that most people read from the top of a page to the bottom, unless
they're on their 18th cocktail. There's simply no good reason for top
posting.
