Indeed, from one of Jonathan's reply: In-Reply-To: <[email protected]> References: <[email protected]> Somehow, Gelf's emails do not contain either of these fields (which are standard). But he uses Yahoo webmail: X-Mailer: YahooMailClassic/5.1.18 YahooMailWebService/0.7.289.4 So it's very strange that they are missing. I cannot really believe Yahoo does not generate these. Many MUA use these fields for email threading, not only Mailman. _______________________________________________ bitc-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.coyotos.org/mailman/listinfo/bitc-dev
