Do you understand that Max and I are saying that the way the web UI for gmail and other large mailbox providers works is that as soon as you change a subject line it breaks the thread and places those mails in their own separate group? So no, for the majority of subscribed readers doing such a thing will not "let everyone know that the OP has solved the problem" because the hint of that will be somewhere far away seemingly in another thread. This "SOLVED" thing comes from web forums, which work completely differently. So then the argument changes to not be in aid of current subscribers but for hypothetical future readers of the web archives of the list.
