(snip irrelevant quotes) If you're subscribed from the digest, when replying, do not quote the whole digest, instead cut off the parts that is necessary and relevant to the current thread. If you're creating a new thread, usually you'd not quote at all. > Looks to me like you might be subscribed to the digest instead of > individual messages.

I do not know about Thunderbird, but I am using Evolution, and although I am subscribed to the digest, I can get the "regular listing" on the thread I'm following by replying in this way: 1. Make sure the Subject line matches the thread (and add RE: if necessary) 2. In the To: Field, insert tutor@python.org 3. In the CC line, insert the email of original poster, and people who has followed the thread (usually in the To and CC field of the email you are replying to). Evolution (possibly Thunderbird too) would group related emails (although its detection is a bit weak and reserved). > -- > Stand Fast, > tjg.
