I find trimming the quotation down to the bit you're actually replying
to far more important than where to put it. If you do that in-line
posting almost comes naturally.

A bottom-posted message that quotes two pages of stuff everybody has
already read, then adds a line or two at the end can be just as annoying
as turning the discussion flow upside down.

Hence: trim your quotations!

Cheers
Steffen.
