Then gmail hasn't excellent threading ;) See our mailarchive: http://lists.openmoko.org/pipermail/community/2007-February/thread.html It does not de-threading my messages :) After 5 mails with the same subject - maybe with changing topic it is hard work to find the right mail quickly - changing the subject helps to choose if this mail worth to be read now or later and makes it much more easier to refind interesting mails - the subject should be meaningful. To become ontopic to Openmoko - condsider using IMAP and to descide to download a message for reading now - than changing subjects does not only save time, it help to save also money by being able choose to read the mail now or later... (By consider this, I should choose shorter subjects...*g*) Threading by subject could be only a backup - the smart way is use proper working reference and do threading based on references in the header. > Now, perhaps this is the fault of GMail - or the Mail list application > that the OpenMoKo list is using.

You are right, I already ask pardon for the style of my mail it was not respectfull. But webmailer and services payed with adverticement and data mining are still sub optimal solutions and IMHO provoking when they are producing problems - e.g. based on that the users does known only hotmail.com, AOL, gmail or outlook and does not know that there are more and better solutions.... Sorry for my negaive style on this list, it was not my intention to be agressive, or unproductive... rob _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
