If there is strong order to the subject (I think the RE:, etc has to be before the [xmail]), subject threading works great, but if it is like this list, then, from my experience, it has to thread with the In-Reply-To: header. The problem is people generally reply to a thread, then change the subject and start a clean body, instead of typing a completely new message like you did (look in the headers, your post is missing this header, mine will have it). It may use the References: header too, I'm not totally sure, just played with it a little. -- Best regards, Charles mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
