Please can you stop HIJACKING E-Mail-Threads?
Some people are apparently unable to compose a message to a list and key in
the address, so they've got to take another message, reply to it (so they
can get the list address in the To: field), then overwrite the subject and
(hopefully) erase the body so they can compose a new message, without
regard to the fact that doing this sets additional headers in the message
which relate it to a thread which it has nothing to do with.
On second thought, that just sounds plain silly.
I've actually done this before and got railed about it. But is sounds
like email clients should default to clearing those extra thread headers
whenever a users modifies a subject line. Maybe a good suggestion for
Thunderbird...
