I suppose, but I run a real e-mail client, so I don't have to get used
to it. Only problem is that I really should check the online junk
folder more often. I haven't figured out hot to disable it entirely and
sometime it catches something important.

If you're using gmail, then you can configure it to work with a a pop
client, such as Thunderbird. I'm sure your ISP also offers this option.
Once it's set up it's much bette, (though some peoples mails don't seem to
thread properly.
I had noticed that Gmail has recently upgraded their web interface to make
it unsuable to anyone used to either the web page metaphor or a real e-mail
client. I'm sure someone, somewhere must like it.

My ISP has recently changed its webmail interface to one "powered by
Google" that does this. With no apparent way of turning it off.

Why would there be? That's the recommended (RFC-compliant) behaviour.
In over 20 years of using email, it's the first interface I've had to
use that does this.
If you don't want your message to be treated as a reply, you have
two choices:
o Don't use the "reply" command.
o find some way to edit headers to remove the "In-Reply-To:" and
"References:" line(s).
Any email program that can do threading probably allows you to define
your own email aliases; just define "PDML" to go to the list address,
and you don't need to use a "reply" command at all.
It's not an email programme, per se. It's a web GUI designed for
people who are (shall we say) less than technically proficient. The
command capabilities seem to be extremely limited. As i said, I can't
even order the messages. Of your three options, only the first seems
to be possible. As the interface has speeded up quite dramatically,
that may be the option I will choose, onovce I become more familiar
with it.
