Not at all, this is one of my favorite policies that has come from the
performance improvement department.  Yes that is right, it is official
policy at my location to not deal with people who top-post.  PI
decided that with people moved around between positions it is always
best for bottom-posting just as if on a mailing list even in two party
communications as, if another person comes into the discussion, it is
much quicker, and thus cheaper, to have a properly formatted
communication to come up to speed.  This is the same as the policy
that businesses that send ill-formatted bussiness letters will not
receive addition business when there is another suplier capable of
delivering the product/service.

Top-posting is even grounds for being written up if you later need to
forward a copy of a message on to another department or person.
