If you're receiving all the list e-mails, instead of just digests,
simply replying should work fine without creating "new" threads. (You
weren't actually creating new threads, but your replies were threaded
under the digest posts, which most people don't have copies of.)

Digests are mostly useful for people who want to keep up with what's
going on in a list without actually participating. People who want to
subscribe to the digests only but still reply to them should do what
you did, changing the Subject, but also mention in the body that
they're replying to digests so the regulars don't get bent out of shape.
