I've had this discussion a few times with different mailing lists and
opinions vary quite considerably sometime to arguments :-/
I personally try to bottom post when possible and Thunderbird does this
automatically (including trimming) when you use the reply to mailing
list option.
However I find this to be a legacy thing and personally I either use the
thread function of Thunderbird or go to the web based archive system
when I want to read an entire thread.
So for me, I'm not bothered and will just set my client to comply with
this list's preference.
Kind Regards,
