That's gmail's fault for not providing a "reply to list" option. You could send them a feature request (I believe there is an online form for doing this), but I haven't found them very responsive in the past. Maybe they just don't like my feature requests! ;-) > GMail does display messages in threads, which is one reason why it is > a very good way to read this list. Well, it groups them together into what gmail calls "conversations". This is not quite the same as a threading email reader which displays them in a hierarchical tree - and not as useful either. > I can see the In-Reply-To:, but > GMail is obviously clever enough to know that despite that, if the > subject header changes it is probably a new topic. Incorrect (and non-standard) behaviour for a mail client. Threads often drift slowly over time, and eventually someone changes the subject line; or often people will change the subject line to be more specific to their own post which is still about the same topic. I would not want my mail reader displaying these as new threads. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
