Threading by Subject problem, same subject from different users

2001-02-15 Thread Mark Knipfer

I currently have The Bat! set up this way:

  View | Display | All Messages (Ctrl =)
  View | Sort by | Received Time (Ctrl 1)
  View | Sort by | Descending Order (Ctrl 0)
  View | View Threads by | Subject (Alt 2)

However, when I receive messages from different users using the same
subject lines or the subject line remains blank, these messages tend
to thread together.  This makes it very hard to read several different
conversations when the subject line is blank or containing identical
subject lines.

Is there a way to make The Bat! differentiate the subjects and
senders?

Threading by references? But you're having problems with that so
there's really no solution.

You could sort by sender instead of received time, maybe that's whay
you need.

My setup is a mirror of what you have Mark, and I really enjoy using TB!
with that setup. Unfortunately, when you "view threads by subject", all
blank subject lines will be clumped together, but TB! is only doing what
we ask her to. As Allie pointed out, the only other feasible alternative
is to view the threads by references, but then that causes the
irritating shifting of the columns.

Fortunately, there are not many threads with blank subjects, so it is a
shortcoming I'm prepared to live with, and I cannot recall ever seeing
two different threads with the same subject... not in the same time
period anyway. ;o)
