Every time when I reply a message, Reply text automatically starts on 
the bottom of the email, while I'd like it to automatically jump to to 
top of the page and not the bottom... Where can I set that up please?

Thanks,

Z.

Select your e-mail account and "View settings for this account."
Choose "Composition & Addressing" and under the checked box for
"Automatically quote the original message when replying" select
"start my reply below the quote."

For these newsgroups, replying at the bottom is preferred; and in general, it 
has the advantage of preserving the natural sequence of the conversation, not 
as in:

Because you see the reply before the question.
Why is top-posting bad?

You can, however, customize it, separately for each mail or news account, in 
the "Composition & Addressing" part of the settings for the concerned account. 
(As I said, please don't change it for the news.mozilla.org account, so you'll 
go on using bottom-posting for this account at least.)


Best regards,
Tony.

Note that some newsgroups outside of news.mozzila.org actually prefer
top-posting.  I generally bottom-post for newsgroups and top-post for
E-mail replies.
