Linking is accomplished for users whenever they use the reply to option in their mail clients. Changing the subject line on a reply is NOT equivalent to creating a new message! That is rarely understood by email users. It's a shame that mail clients don't make it apparent to users. I guess it's because software salesmen don't want to confuse their users. -- -->A flashlight: is a metal tube used to store dead dry cells. <-- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
