If you hit "reply" then the threading information (in -reply-to und references headers) gets inserted as well and thus the message gets threaded to that thread. Opposite to what some people who are new on the net believe the threading is *not* done by the subject but by the threading headers. The subject gets used only in case the threading headers are absent. Kai -- Kai Schätzl, Berlin, Germany Get your web at Conactive Internet Services: http://www.conactive.com
