Hi Ken,
I guess you are running windows, which mostly does not know about email
threads. What happend was you pressed reply and started your own thread
inside another thread started by Dylan.
Under Linux email is usually thread aware which means it has a header for
tracking that message thread. Whereas those who aren't simply sorts by
subject heading. It looks really messy for us when messages have disrelated
messages inside them.
If you load up kmail you can see how that looks like.
So what I'm saying is to not use the reply button to start a new thread, but
new message. I know it's a bit more work but we'll love you for it. : )
