The threads in mail lists are kept in order by using the lines in the header which are entitled 'Message-id:' and 'In-reply-to:' to create the linking. There is also a header line entitled 'References:' which can be used as well. One of the user mail agents you are using ( X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2653.19) ) does not utter an 'In-reply-to:' nor a 'References:' header line and thus breaks the sequence. I suspect that you have no control over this, and it's therefore always one of those days when we have to learn to be statues. > Regards, Robert > Some days you are the pigeon, some days you are the statue. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Zane Gilmore [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, 24 May 2004 10:29 p.m. > Cc: CLUG > Subject: Re: Threads was: calebs time problem > > It appears that Robert uses more than one email client. > > When he uses one that looks like a Web based one then it breaks the > threads. > > This can be a problem with some web-based email clients. > > (and I think that I might be about to send html in my email dammit!) > apologies if I have I am still setting up Moz' on a new MDK install. > > Robert Fisher wrote: > >No idea what you are getting at.

He grasps it firmly and the universe revolves around him. -- Sincerely etc. Christopher Sawtell NB. This PC runs Linux. If you find a virus apparently from me, it has forged the e-mail headers on someone else's machine. Please do not notify me when this occurs. Thanks.
