Great topic, Michelle!
I'd use threadmarkers if I thought they would benefit most others. I've
tried a couple times, about three days each time.
Lemme ask, Michelle. For my emailer (OE) they are almost useless at the
end of Subject. If at the front, would they help me and many others to
handle GML email? How? For all emailers.
IMHO threadmarkers aren't used because few people know how to benefit from
them. I see the potential but not the mechanics.
BTW -- If we can solve this about threadmarkers for EVERYONE, there's
less need for SocialGML or other potential splinter groups. (Subject to
GML's max of 100 messages/day.)
