Well ... no, it's only a problem if you let it be. You could set your
Outlook to default to plain text, and page down to the bottom and start
posting there. Or even better, interleaved, and add your comments only
to the sections applicable.
That's what I try to do when using Outlook. It's a bit more work, but
nothing debilitating. And somewhere out on the Net is an Outlook plugin
that is supposed to make it quote properly and start replies at the
bottom, if you're really that much into it. (I'm not :-)
