Hi Jürgen,

The [reply] as a suffix would be as follows, and would be the suffix
equivalent of the first Re: of the first...well, reply.   First message 
in this table sent TO the xcmail user.  * = xcmail reply - applies across 
whole table.


 An xcmail style        "Reply" style        alt "Reply" style (even harder)
                                            (only xcmail replies in counter)

  Hello                 Hello                     Hello
* Re: Hello             Hello [Reply]             Hello [Reply]
  Re: Re: Hello         Re: Hello [Reply]         Re: Hello [Reply]
* Re[3]: Hello          Hello [3]                 Hello [2]
  Re: Re[3]: Hello      Re: Hello [3]             Re: Hello [2]
* Re[5]: Hello          Hello [5]                 Hello [3].

But I see your point about looking for the suffix as well as the prefix,
and of the sorting by subject.  Maybe it's just the convoluted way my mind
works.

First quick attempt at the folder.cxx did not work. Where did I put my c
books....  I'll let you know if I get anywhere ;-)
