Well, if you include hotmail (which doesn't do threading of any kind) you might be getting close. On the other hand, if you surveyed the people who actually read this list, my guess is that the majority are using software that pays attention to the references header. I typically use thunderbird, and it does, and as a result this thread appeared hijacked. I wish I could keep it from merging identical subjects into the same thread. On rare occasion I get emails with no subject from family and they end up buried in my inbox under another email with a similarly useless subject line... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFJlqRG4/rWKZmVWkRAvNRAJ9j/8Fjl/jfb2wVvqJqey3OqY7riwCePX5m ICPWItXdcNgcNyw18ykeNag= =O0yU -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
