For those of us who use mail clients that understand what headers like Thread-Index: AcVAiG7iyfb2TrlzT+CYcsBsxEhNiAAYn8GA In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> mean, replying to a message in a thread to ask a different question means that we may or may not see your question (as it may be nested way down in an existing thread). Hence, you hijacked a thread to ask a new question. As the other poster said, message -> new to ask new questions that are unrelated.
