I've recently noticed that I seem to be missing the original posts

with "Re:" but no sign of the original post. For example, the

entitled "Conradi Sonata". And yes, I've checked my spam box! Has
anyone
else had this problem? Is there anything I can do about it?
Yes, I'm using Mail on a Mac and I have Organize by Threads checked in
the view menu. In my case, the original message is usually there, I
just often forget to look for it. Or, more often, I'll see a post,
write a reply and then find a dozen other responses that other people
had already posted saying the same thing I said. I, of course, didn't
see them because I'm working my way through my email chronologically
and for some reason the original post isn't kept together with all the
"Re" posts. (I thought that is what Organize by Threads is supposed to
do). The solution is to View by Subject.
