I do top-post if I am asking _about_ the email, rather than addressing
its content, like "Is this a TODO item"? You don't want to trim the
email because it has context that might be needed for the reply, and
bottom-posting just makes it harder to find my question, and the
question isn't really related to the content of the email.
