I'm using Thunderbird 2.0.0.14 (the latest I think) on Win XP Pro to

Please, what is happening here? Is this down to
- my Thunderbird
- senders' e-mail clients
- the list management software
- something else; what?
Are others seeing the same effect?
Is there anything I/we can do about it as it's very confusing?
The usual way to get into this is when there's a thread with a bunch
of nesting. If you delete the "parent" each of the "children" becomes
a new thread, still with the same subject. I don't know anything to do
about it but to keep the whole thread, and sometimes they get really
huge!
Thank you. That explains it perfectly and I have to say I feel somewhat
foolish not to have thought of it myself. I tend to clear out my mail
every night. I now understand that new messages arriving for deleted
threads create their own "thread names".
