What is happening is I get the CentOS mailing list in digest form. That is, I get one e-mail each day with all of the previous day's posts. If I notice a topic that I feel I can contribute to, I cut and paste an appropriate e-mail from the digest and "reply" to the list setting the subject appropriately (i.e., "Re: <original subject>). This is somewhat of a pain but it is more than made up for by the convenience of getting the list traffic in digest form.
Your complaint is the first I've heard that this creates a problem for anyone. Unfortunately, I don't see a way to set the "in reply to" mail header element though T-Bird. If anyone has a reasonable (meaning doesn't take significantly more of my time than my current approach) alternative, I'm more than wiling to change how I'm posting. Giving up getting the list traffic in digest form is not acceptable.
not sure, but can't you reply to individual messages if your digest is in MIME (rather than plain text)?
