Angela,
You have already done that automatically by the new "Subject" heading.
The software picks it up as a new thread, so please continue now, by replying
to this. Alternatively, you can start a new Subject heading. It is automatic.
That's incorrect. If you simply reply to a message, your reply will
remain in the original thread, even if you change the Subject: line.
This is because (well behaved) mail readers use other fields in the
header of a mail message to determine the thread the message belongs.
Now, if your mail *composer* has an option or feature like "Put message
in a new thread when changing the Subject of a reply", that's a
different thing, and that can be what Jones is saying.
