Hi,
1) Top posting does nothing but confuse the thread and some people may
miss relevant chunks of information in a thread if they have to look at
the top, bottom, middle of every mail. They may not even bother to look
if it's jumbles up.
2) If you are changing the subject of the thread like you say you were
doing, then don't top post! Start a new thread! Change the subject line
to reflect your post's subject and start with a fresh mail body (copying
and pasting snippets from other posts if relevant.
Hope this helps, but no need to leave the list!
