Another way of dealing with this (if you get the digest version) is to click on the topic heading. It will open a new window with only that thread, and at the bottom you'll have the options of Reply, Reply to Author, or Forward. At least, this is the case using Gmail. Also, a friendly reminder: when you respond to a post, please remember to trim off all the other posts in the thread that are not the one you are responding to. Just select the other parts and hit Delete. Otherwise, we all have to scroll through all of those repeat copies of previous messages that have already been posted in order to get to the next post.
