I know in Thunderbird you can click on the email address of a message
and compose a new message to that person. It's not the same as a reply
which incorporates other header information in order to perserve the
thread association.

Mark,
I did not hijack a thread. I started this one myself.
No you didn't. You hit reply to an old message deleted the content and
changed the subject. Please don't do this.
Possibly he's an innocent victim of today's over-helpful MUAs. If I'd
never seen or been told about the Message-ID:, In-Reply-To:, and
References: headers, I'd think that the above actions had wiped out
all traces of the previous thread, and I would think I'm being
efficient by letting the MUA copy the list address for me instead of
typing it myself.
Authors of gooey MUAs would do well to support listmail better by, for
example, providing a button to "send new message to the list that
reflected this message", or enabling the association of a folder with
an address and providing a button for "send to this folder's
associated address".
