It's singularly amazing how much spare time these anal retentive types are about simple email that is easy enough for a human of average intelligence to figure out, read, and deal with.
The only "right way" to format email involves making a simple effort not to obfuscate.
If course, it's more fun to demand machine perfect email formatting and waste time bitching about it like a bunch of crotchety old men babbling about their lumbago because they have nothing else to do.
Meanwhile they're wasting more time on perfect formatting than they save if the email is perfectly formatted.

Top post is "ok" in cases, where you aren't answering to anything specific
IMNSHO, top posting is *never* OK, like reading a book back to front is in most cases nonsense.
It's not ok very often, but never say never. :)
When somebody "me too!"s - and there are good reasons to do that, sometimes - there's really no harm in the response being on top. In fact, I think it's better put it on top than to pedantically follow the post-at-the-bottom rule without understanding why and when it's worth following.
It's true that top posting can be pretty inconvenient to people who use archaic mailers [0], but I'd argue that those archaic mailers are pretty inconvenient anyway.
On the other hand, mails with lines of more than 80 characters (except when they include literal output) have no excuse. :)
[0] The official definition of an archaic mailer, that I'm making up as I write this, is one that doesn't thread mails.
