Some mail clients make it damn near impossible not to top post.
Blackberry's comes to mind.

As long as you see the data under one of the tests on the Xymon server
and you check the date of the data, you'll see it's arrived. The
client-side tests are the same by default unless you add one. Get one
working and you'll see which tests are client side (you can make it
even more obvious by setting up no server side tests -- remember to
add "noconn").
