I meant to send this to the list but it only went out to the OP, damned reply-to setting on this list (I know, I know, y'all think it is good, I STILL disagree and always will).

I am not certain, but I believe that if somebody replies to a post that was made from a Gmail account, the original post will then "magically" appear in the threaded view.
