I use Pegasus Mail and view the posts threaded, which by and large
works excellently. No need to quote lots in mails as it is very easy to
locate the original mails.
But Pegasus Mail truncates subject lines, as displayed in folder views,
to 35 characters, something that will be changed in a later version of
Pegasus but not for a while yet. Each email on this list is prefixed
with [libreoffice-users] together with various [re:], [fwd:] and other
things. Net result is that there are very few characters left out of
the 35 to accurately thread on, and I get all sorts of totally
different things threaded together.
If the list admin changed this to something like [lo-users] or even
[lou] it would make threading far more reliable.
It strikes me, the problem isn't LibreOffice, it's Pegasus Mail. :-)
Personally, I don't think it's LibreOffice's responsibility to address
the shortcomings and limitations of other software products.
Another point, if you shorten the name and start using acronyms, that
could cause problems for new users finding it difficult to figure out
what [lou] means. :-)
