This are two examples of the way it's done by Discourse: References: In-Reply-To: References: What we get is a thread |--email |--email What we don't get is a complete thread tree |--email |--email [1] Forwarded Message From: Pete Biggs via GNOME Discourse Reply-To: GNOME Discourse To: ralf.mard...@rocketmail.com Subject: [Site Feedback] Email usage of discourse - threading Date: Fri, 21 Oct 2022 13:33:30 + PeteB Pete Biggs October 21 I (and others from Evolution mailing list) are trying to get to grips with using discourse in a mailing list type way. One thing I’ve noticed is that the threading information on the emails doesn’t seem to be working. None of the message IDs in the References: header match up with other emails from the topic. I would expect a reply to at least mention the message ID from the messages it’s replying to, but it doesn’t seem to. Things are made more complex in that I don’t seem to be notified about my own posts - so that any threads that I reply to are essentially broken. The only consistent threading reference is to the original topic - i.e. so at least the specific topic seems to stay together - but even that breaks occasionally. Does anyone seriously use Discourse exclusively by email? P. Visit Topic or reply to this email to respond. You are receiving this because you enabled mailing list mode.

Hi, how about "some good examples" of Discourse mailing list multipart emails with intact threads and some of those Discourse mailing list multipart emails with plain text that is unmodified and a few additional emails with proper quoting? I ask for emails, not for the way it's displayed by the forum.

Anecdata. Unless you have some good examples where this is actually an
"unmanageable mess".
My experiences have mostly been just fine with mixed ML/web access.

That's never the problem. The problem with discourse is when some ppl
use it as a web forum and others use it as an ML. Especially within the
same thread. It all descends into an unmanageable mess. :-(

For the gimp-user list, the number of messages created in the "list discontinuation" threads (roughly 100 by now) is fast approaching the number of messages this list has had in total before that for the whole year (about 110). Personally, I think that Discourse will be more than able to handle this amount of messaging, will likely even lead to an increase in volume, and be able to reach more people in general. -- Regards, Michael ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

Hi, an important part of the app communities are the app developers, the admins and moderators of the current lists at gnome.org, hence a first step to get closer to a solution are statements from those people. We all or at least most of us were surprised and disorganized, the next step is to become more organised.
