anyway, this has been up for discussion before with little
improvements..so I have given up and accept status quo.
I was one of the offenders. A list member politely pointed out to me (in private mail)
the existence of the of the in-reply-to header which my client isn?t set to use. I had no
idea! I?d been diligently changing subject: headers when I hijacked threads, but to no
avail. So, apologies for my past bad behavior and I?ll try to do better in the future.
I would encourage you though, rather than give up, just politely be more explicit about
what is needed - it was ignorance rather than laziness in my case which was the problem.
