First: Sorry for my bad english. I'm not a native english-speaker, so please ignore my mistakes. :o)
I'm running some lists with the NNTP-gateway enabled both ways. I've noticed that when mailman posts to the newsgroup, it changes the Message-Id. Or, I guess it's mailman and not INN. This generates problems with threading, since one message got two message ids. An example: [EMAIL PROTECTED] both posts and collects messages from local.test at the news-server news.example.com. John and Anne are both subscribed to the list and Peter prefers to use the news-server. John posts a message to the list with subject "Hello". John's client generates the message id <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for that mail. Mailman will now forward that message correctly to Anne, with the right message id. But when Peter reads the message at the news-server, he will see the message id <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. So far, everything looks fine for the users. But now Anne wants to make a reply to John's post and posts a message to the list with subject "Re: Hello". This message has the In-Reply-To-header "<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>", since this is the message id on the mail she recieved. Peter, who are still using NNTP, will not be able to find the message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, since it has been renamed to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on the news-server. Peter's newsreader will then create a new thread for the reply. Are there any way I can let all the users of my lists recieve the same message ids, so my news-reading users will be able to get the threads right? Thak you in advance. -- Senilix - Simen E.
