If you want to be serious about this then a new topic should be
initiated by sending a new mail instead of a reply with a new

the subject to 'thread' mails. instead it uses certain fields in the
mail headers. I noticed that mail-man (the mailing list handler of
THIS list) does not seem to add those headers (in fact, they seem to
be removed from outgoing mails, I cannot find those fields like below).
You're right, my main gripe is against the mailing list software
mailman itself because it does not allow HTML. It does archive a HTML
version of the archive but when you look at it on the server you see
HTML code.
By "allow HTML", I mean "simple HTML": text style, lists, tables etc,
not eccentric showy stuff.
I've sent an e-mail to mailman about this and they replied
* that we, technical people, do not need HTML because we don't use
it much.
I think you misunderstood my mail. At the very bottom of that partly
quoted mail I stated : Never use HTML mail. I am very much against
using html in mails. I believe HTML belongs on a website, not a mail.
I prefer plain-text.. Sorry :)
