The most reliable way is if a reply can refer to the mail id that is sent in the original mail header. This won't work for you as the digest throws away the original mail ids. --> The most reliable way of threading is not available to you. Some clients als analyse the subject line and if they see a "Re: subject" they sort it as a reply to thread "subject" (although they cannot know which mail in thread subject it is a reply to). This seems to not work in your mail client, but it might be that it works in other clients. To cut a long story short, it's quite difficult from a digest to reconstruct the threading structure. spaetz _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
