and what about the complete stack of company logo's (multi-fold, as all
replyers add their own set), smiley gifs, jpegs for twitter, facebook
and other shit and worse, advertisements!

Even when people expect me to do top-posting, I do so with just a
single line as top-post:

"I have answers to all your questions. Read them below the questions you
 asked in your ridiculously long mail (from which I stripped all useless
 company logo's and signatures)"

Then I reply as usual. If they still don't get it, its their fault, not
mine.
