I'll add to Richard's post to clarify that what he describes is known as hijacking a thread. The email client running on iDevices has internal markers that link replies to their original messages so changing the subject does not break the connection. That's why it's always better to start a new message to the group when you're changing the subject.
Alan Lemly -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2014 11:09 AM To: ViPone list; [email protected] Subject: Any apps to play rar files I'm sending this off list as a new message so as not to add clutter to the list, otherwise this would have gone into the thread about Jonathan's book. If you have your Email sorting by thread, and someone hits reply on a message about Blind Square, then changes the subject line to something about recipes, and sends the message, then that message will show up with all the messages in a conversation about Blind Square, so you may not think you received any responses because you did not see any messages in reply to your message about recipes. So, instead of hitting reply and changing the subject line, it is best to start a new message so it will have a thread all its own. I hope that helps.
