IMO the current concept is half-broken anyway since they don't get
emails for the replies anyway. IMO people should use the list via normal
email clients and not via the Jive add-on.

To be honestly IKO the whole Jive software sucks whole galaxies - for
example it breaks (by messing up the References:/In-Reply-To: headers)
the threading in my email client (and normal Mozilla) which causes
threads split up into tiny chunks that it has become difficult to follow
the replies. At least I no longer read
opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org on regular basis because there are
too many threads broken into pieces by people posting via Jive, making
it difficult to follow long discussions with many sub-topics.

(And that is not the only problem with Jive - it messes up the email
encoding, doesn't handle attachments properly and many other "little"
details are broken etc. etc.).
