Hello,

When posting a new thread to a mailing list, please do not reply to an existing message and then change the subject. All messages contain a hidden header containing context about the thread they belong to, and many mail clients support using that information for grouping together all messages belonging to the same thread.

Currently, we have a "thread" on this list which already contains 223 messages about
* Russian locale information not compatible with FPC locale variables
* FPC boost features
* Multi threading support
* Linking to TObject
* libc translations

This completely defeats any auto-threading based on those headers. And the reason that simply using subject lines is not enough for threading, is that those often get mangled. I.c., the above thread also contains mails titled e.g. " Russian locale informationnotcompatiblewithFPClocalevariables" and " Russianlocale informationnotcompatiblewithFPClocalevariables".

Thanks,


Jonas

PS: this remark is not directed at anyone in particular since it happens on many different occasions, but this thread is a particularly good example.
