Of course, people don't have to save every message in order for these headers to be useful: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg14148.html Note the message thread at the bottom of this web-page. Without "References:" and "In-Reply-To", the mailing list archive couldn't have associated all of these messages (notice that the "Subject" field changed multiple times). Again, I say: email clients that don't send proper headers and don't know how to deal with proper headers are seriously lacking in basic functionality. --kevin -- Kevin D.
