My bad.  My apologies.  His response didn't have the "Re:" in it, and
didn't get threaded in.  I thought that this was just another one of
"those" messages.
Please accept my apologies.
I wouldn't say it's "your bad."  The bad belong to more than one person.  ;)

Oh, and you definitely shouldn't be apologizing. Your reply was nice, short, and courteous, so--had it been an outsider lost in cyberspace--he/she would have realized that this list is the wrong list.

BTW, the "AW:" in the subject seems to be about equivalent to "Re:" (or maybe "Fwd:") in some other language (haven't figured out which language or what it stands for, yet). If your mail reader is only keying off the subject line, threading is bound to break quite often. Instead, it should be keying off the "In-Reply-To" and "References" headers of the mail message...
