Wow, I have been on the internet since 1986, and I had never realized that
this could be a problem. I am often guilty of the same, for lazyness
reasons, as this is a convenient way to avoid having to reenter the "to",
"cc", and "bcc" fields.

I went back to James' original message, which my mail client definitely does
NOT show as a followup to anything.

But when I examine its raw headers, I found this one:

In-reply-to: <b537e3a60907011151q563194e5g184c8f2cbd68d...@mail.gmail.com>

Is this the header that made you point your finger?

In any case, I learned something today, and though this is off-topic here,
it may be worth going to the bottom of this.

Jean-Denis
