Brona --

You have started a new thread by taking an existing posting and replying to
it while you changed the subject.

That is bad, because it breaks threading. Whenever you reply to a message,
your mail client generates a "References:" header that tells all recipients
which posting(s) your posting refers to. A mail client uses this information
to build a threaded view ("tree view") of the postings.

With your posting style you successfully torpedoed this useful feature; your
posting shows up within an existing thread it has nothing to do with.

Always do a fresh post when you want to start a new thread. To achieve this,
click on "New message" instead of "Reply" within your mail client, and enter
the list address as the recipient. You can save the list address in your
address book for convenience.

% I've just realized I'm replaying to JeRRy only!!!! Could anybody fixt this

Even worse, you have hijacked a completely separate thread rather than
even the one remotely related to your post.  That's like hijacking your
own hijacking!


% problem by setting the Reply To header correctly? to be able to reply PHP
% conf. directly using Reply button?!!!

Please, not this discussion again; the last one isn't even cool!

If you somehow missed it, and if you can't check the archives, I will
personally bounce you all 105 messages in the monster thread from earlier
this week rather than have it start up again.  If you're not careful, I
suspect that a number of other list members will do the same thing to
you.
