Top posting rules where people talk at each other. This is common in the corporate world where email is treated like letter writing.

When people are having a conversation with each other, you reply like this. In the corporate world, I often see people struggle putting their responses in red text, or in caps, instead of quoting properly. Quoting properly isn’t “old school” or “hold out”, it’s basic courtesy.

I don’t find quoting on mobile particularly difficult (speaking for iPhone).
