Even if you are reading a thread fresh, trying to remember what a post said doesn't work too well for people without threaded mail readers, since a reply may be separated from the original message. And even for people with threaded mail readers, it doesn't work too well with long threads with many replies -- if you finish reading this message, and then read my reply to Hal's reply to the original message, you would have a hard time remembering Hal's message that I was replying to, since you would have read that message 10 messages ago. -- Hubert Chan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.
