If top posting doesn't bother you, worry not.  The issue tends to
grow in importance as list traffic increases.  I've got one list
that averages a couple of posts a month that I will not add this
filter to.  I know one admin who's list runs 100+ posts daily.
He limits quoting to five lines total.  It all depends on what
works fer you.
