The fault is in the PEN-L listserv software; it is the only list in which I
participate that adds an extra "re:" when I reply to a post. It has to do
with the fact that every message header is automatically changed by the
software with a new number that eliminates the re: in front of the previous
header, thereby fooling software into thinking the header subject has
changed.
I wish Michael would look into having the numbering of posts removed for
that reason, but it is too valuable then we will just have to live with the
multiplying re:s.
