All,
There have been a number of unintentional thread hi-jackings recently and I wanted to clarify why it seems to be increasing, how it can happen and how to avoid it.
Why the increase?
=================
I don't think there has been an increase. What has increased is the use of good thread aware mail clients (eg Thunderbird) that base thread detection on the "Message-ID" and "References" headers rather than just matching subject lines.
How it can happen
=================
Rather than create a new message, you reply to an old one and change the subject.
How to avoid it
===============
Simple really. To create a new message do exactly that, create a new message. Don't reply to an old one and change the subject. ;)
In summary, only use the reply button when you want to reply.
As always, if anyone expereinces problems with the list do let the owners know.
