I set up a filter in my e-mail client for all [fsck] emails, but I still have a hard time relating e-mails to each other. People often put a _"re: same subject"_ to tell what the subject is, and while this helps me to know what the message is going to be related to it does not give much info and it does not allow the author much freedom to do anything else. I thought something like a bulletin board on the website would be something that might be good. It will allow messages to be organized well and archived. I got this idea from using Moodle here at Truman (moodle is like a free version of Blackboard). While moodle is not a bulletin board system it might serve the purpose better because it also allows general news, calender, etc. And the email does not need to stop. Moodle's default is to email all members when there is a post. Moodle also allows members to subscribe to an rss feed (info on what rss is at http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10088_7-5143656.html?tag=dir.rss). YaBB (*Y*et *a*nother Bulletin *B*oard) is another alternative. It is an free to use and is open source (although I do not know if it is GPL). One flaw I see is that in order to post the author would need to go to a website (although I am not sure). E-mailing is quick and easy, so this might be a downside. Just a thought. I would like to hear what others think.
In Thunderbird I just click "sort by thread" and conversations become threaded. *shrugs*
