You *STILL* don't understand what "top-posting" is, and why it sucks?

Sorry I think I got it now was using Entourage 2004 and it was sending
it as a top message due to a misconfigured setting

Looks like you got it fixed.

Wow, that's a name from the past! Of all of the old legacy apps to
continue using, WHY THAT ONE? All of my Mac users breathed a collective
sigh of relief when Microsoft rolled out Outlook for Mac.

Or, maybe that was my team supporting it that I heard. :)

Well I have a copy of outlook 2011 along with office 2011 but to my surprise
it doesn't have Usenet support... Plus a Core 2 Duo is too slow for most web based tasks (i.e I have a early 2009 iMac running Leopard 10.5.8) so I kind
of have it set up as a time capsule from 2009 most of what I do on the web needs a 3rd gen dual core or 2nd gen quad core processor or later to do well and I have a XPS 8700 running Windows 8.1 (doesn't have a SSD otherwise I
would be running 10 if it wasn't for the horrible boot up times and the
frozen desktop when booted up) with a i7-4790 and a GTX 1060 with 16GB of
DDR3 memory and a ThinkPad T470 and a 2014 Mac mini (which I use for downgrading iOS devices)

Those are great CPUs. I have an old Dell inspiron 3847 with one of
those, and it was great. High power consumption, though. If it could
take more than 16 GB of RAM, I'd still be using it.

Some time ago, developers at Qualcomm took the Thunderbird engine and
skinned it to look like Eudora. Interesting idea, but I don't think it
took off.

Thunderbird Portable has been my go-to on the BBS for years. I can run
it from my documents folder and know I get all of the mail when I do a
backup. I'm not a fan of email software that stores mail in your
appdata folders.
