>>Please don't. If somebody adds [SOLVED] or something to the
subject, it still has to go in the same thread.
I would say that
1. only a few percentage of modified subjects are modified for that purpose.
2. in almost all cases a "SOLVED" question actually starts a completely
different conversation any way ;-)
3. Most of the time, modified subjects are completely new subjects
>>Moreover, it is a direct violation of RFC 2822:
>>In all cases, it is the meaning that the sender
of the message wishes to convey
Please come on: how many users actually know that there exists an ID and
REFERENCE header in a reply,
and use them to mean anything?
How many even care about "headers" in messages? ;-)
Please use your imagination instead of brandishing RFCs ;-)
There are plenty of options and conventions one could imagine to keep
modified subjects
in the same thread if we want:
- uppercase, or brackets, etc.
- if the new subject contains the old one, for instance "mySubject
SOLVED" in thread "myThread"
would not create a new thread, but "I know nothing about threads
anyway" woul create a new one.
The idea is that people wanting to definitely stay in the new thread
would know how to do,
others wanting to start a new thread don't even know they don't.
