I did NOT say my mailer can't sort the messages per thread. Of course it can. And of course it can and does filter messages into folders. But usualy I do not keep the messages long enough to constitute a thread. Therefore I WILL see as a thread the messages that came overnight, but if you send a reply while I'm online it's very likely that before your reply gets to me the original email is already deleted. > I would suggest top-posting as a default, inline comments when they > serve a real purpose, and that each participant in such a discussion > must be responsible for his or her own retention of the > thread--especially while still actively engaged. Sorry I get too many emails to bother keeping those I might need just to refresh what exactly did what person say. If I'm really interested in the thread I might keep it, but don't count on it.
