+Yes, but it is a not a feature using digests and answering with a one
+liner, citing the complete thread underneath! While top posting seems
+to be a much used no-no in the lists anyway, as you may have noticed
+as well :(
+Especially in such crowded lists and threads we should use the proper

+already in this list at the beginning...
