I have to watch this better. Just now it was in the message list of
the main window. I never have a folder column there. Did it happen in
the View Folder window before?

It does not happen every time. I will watch out for a pattern.

I didn't realize this was so since I use threaded mode pretty heavily. I
wouldn't be surprised if it only happened in the view by references
threaded mode as well.

I've been tempted to adopt this very method because of problems with
threading by references. I already switch off threading when re-filtering
my TB! folders messages by age to an archive folder to prevent this
'grid index out of range' error.

Now this one I've never seen. :-)

Thread questions

[Thomas Fernandez]

Hello TBUDL!

The subject says "questions" because I have just started using threads
and am not sure whether these are really bugs.

First thing is, Curits (and others) reported before that two messages
get replied to when you hit "replY on a message. This happens when a
new message comes in whicle you're reading, and two messages are
highlighted.

I couldn't confirm it at that time, but now can: it happens only when
you are in thread mode! (Maybe this info helps Rit to find the bug.)

Second, the way I use the threading is as follows:

I still go through the message list sequentially, osrted by received
time. I browse the new messages in the View Folder mode, not the
ticker, which I only use when I have a few messages acorss not too
many folders.

When I see a message that I would like to reply to, I hit Alt-1
follow the thread, reply if it still makes sense, go back to the first
message in the thread, and hit Alt-0 to go back to sequential reading.

Suddenly the View Folder window has a column for Folder which I never
put there! I have to right-click and take this column out manually,
each time. Is this normal?
