The mailing list application has no way of knowing whether you intend to continue a thread but just want to change the subject line (say, if the topic has drifted over time) or if you want to start an entirely new thread. Only the person sending a message knows that. So it is up that that person to send the message appropriately. If that person wants to continue the same thread but with a new subject, hit 'reply'. If they want to start a new thread, they should start a new message. The problem with Windows clients is that while most of them will maintain threading headers, they lack the ability (or have it turned off by default) to SHOW the threads. So people don't understand that they exist. miguel _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
