1. Click "Reply". 2. Copy the contents. 3. Discard the message. You'll be returned to the thread. 4. Hover the pointer over "Pentax-Discuss" at the top of any PDML message and a box will pop up. 5. Click on "Email" and you'll get a brand new message to compose, already addressed to p...@pdml.net. 6. Paste the contents from the discarded reply, to be quoted and replied to as is your wont. 7. Give the message a brand new name in the "subject" field. Viola, a new thread is born.
