ML Rules - Esp. Top posting

Dear all,

quick reminder to adhere to the ML rules [1] and refrain from 
top-posting and over-quoting.
The email quoted below is a good example why we have those rules:
a) It is not immediately clear to what the "no" refers to
b) quoting the quoted parts doesn't help in understanding, so those 
could be omitted

Note: I picked that EMail as a random example, it could have been any 
other as well,
so it's not particularly about this but just as I noted an increased 
amount of top-posting and over-quoting recently.

So please just take this as a reminder to improve the experience on the ML.

Thanks,
Alex
