   I hadn't started writing many PMs spawned from echomail messages until     
   recently.  I needed to check for some messages regarding a certain topic,     
   and boom - visually - there they were. Before then I had assumed that my     
   PMs were *only* accessible in the private Address Book section associated     
   with the particular person, and not in the echo database.

   I don't understand why people (usually from the sysop group) frown on the     
   usefulness of threading that can be achieved from MSGID and REPLYID.   
      
   In addition to navigating through a "thread" with the keyboard controls, a     
   visual representation can aide in getting to the right message quicker.      
   The visual tree feature is a nice testament to what can be achieved when     
   taking the time to produce the programming to achieve it.   
      
   I think the only other Fidonet-related reader that offered to produce a     
   visual thread tree was Fleetstreet (OS/2)
