top-post: n., v. - [common] To put the newly-added portion of an email or Usenet  response before the quoted part, as opposed to the more logical sequence of  quoted portion first with original following. [...]  This term is generally used pejoratively with the implication that  the offending person is a newbie, a Microsoft addict  (Microsoft mail tools produce a similar format by default), or simply a  common-and-garden-variety idiot.
