Is Gnus able to use the References: line in mail messages to thread? Before I started getting debian-user as I digest, I mail => newsed the posts to a dummy newsgroup so I could use Cnews to expire the messages and Tin to thread them. Looked something like this in TIn: 0 [ 20] porting Vispro/REXX OS/2-programms to Wi Laurie Chan 1 [ 56] `-> dIon Gillard 2 [ 10] porting Vispro/REXX OS/2-programms to Wi Heinz M?ller 3 [ 47] `-> dIon Gillard 4 [ 37] +-> Heinz M?ller I still do this with debian-user-digest, splitting the digest and adding a dummy Message-ID and some other fields to keep the news system happy. But the individual digest posts don't include a References: line so that it's just a flat thread: 3 [ 26] Threading list subjects? Marco Anglesio 4 [ 34] Threading list subjects? Ionut Borcoman 5 + [ 11] Threading list subjects? Mike Miller I wonder if not snipping the References line would be useful to anybody else? rick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
