There are many nuances as to why sometimes top posting is a better choice, but, because this is really a personal preference that I frequently see turn into a mean-spirited flame war, I won't bother to enumerate them here and now.
Are you aware of any email software that can be configured to easily deal with bottom posting (ie, when you hit reply, it places the cursor at the bottom of the message rather than the top, and, while reading the email, it skips the repeated top content and places the view screen beginning at the first new content)?
I always figured that I should top AND bottom post. You decide if that is so that everyone will be happy, or no one will be happy :-)
