Dear Ankit,

>From u'r last mail it is clear that u didn't get Bottom posting idea

Bottom posting not means type under all contents of a mail.
only quote relevant parts of the message you're replying to and snip
the rest, then place your own comments below it.

Bottom posting has the benefit that you can read quoted messages and
the response in the order in which they were written. This is
especially practical when the quoting goes several levels deep
(messages that quote something that already contains quotes itself).

For more on Top posting vs Bottom posting discussions go through Dan's
