Yes, I find most people are lazy and don't even "adjust" the        subject to reflect the content. Instead you'll find reply after reply,        veering off-the-original-topic quickly and no one bothers to update the        subject line! :(                     But I sure am glad that threading is maintained in modern readers, so as        to "kill" or skip a thread if desired. Not sure how to do that in this        oxp, but in t-bird it is a great feature.                      ../|ug              ---        * Origin: [++++++++1+++++++++2+++++++++3+++++++++4++++++++5++++] (2:221/1.58)       SEEN-BY: 15/2 123/1970 154/10 203/0 221/1 6 360 226/17 229/107 354       SEEN-BY: 229/426 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 292/854       SEEN-BY: 310/31 317/3 322/757 342/200 393/68 396/45 423/120 712/848       SEEN-BY: 770/1 2452/250       PATH: 221/1 280/464 229/426           |
