        There is nothing contained in a mailto href tag that would convey
"threading", so clicking on any mailto tag, such as the one you found below
at the bottom of every message, would simply create a new message, with the
mailto recipient as the "To" field. Nothing wrong with that approach.

        It's a new message. The lack of the In-Reply-To header in the
headers of the message indicates that it is a new message. You'll notice
that _my_ reply to this message, contains the following header:

        In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

        ..which is what (most) threaded readers will use to determine
threading, and where to place your messages among that thread.

        Hope that helps.
