The problem is that Yahoo, as seen, is not suitable for bottom posting because it messes up indenting. Moreover there is no way to specify that you want a line break at 72 characters, for example.

Gmail is pretty good in the sense that it lets you do text-only by
default. However the cursor defaults to the top of the email, which is
okay if you're already in the habit of bottom-posting. The best part of
gmail for ML subscription is the threaded view which is far and away the
best in ANY offline/web-based client. Thunderbird 3's comes close, but
no cigar just yet.
