No it doesn't. Matthias' message of 16:23:11+0200 has Message-ID: <20110425142311.ga31...@sh4-5.1blu.de> And my response, accordingly, has the corresponding In-Reply-To: <20110425142311.ga31...@sh4-5.1blu.de> My reply is therefore shown quite correctly as being a reply to Matthias' message: http://david.woodhou.se/threads.png > Why?

That explanation doesn't make much sense; it sounds like you don't quite understand how threading works. As it happens, I replied to the version of the message that I received through the Evolution list; I'm not actually subscribed to the FreeBSD list. Not that it makes any difference; when a message is sent to both lists, or to individuals as well as mailing lists, the Message-Id: on all copies of the message will remain the same. It's the *same* message. So all the threading works normally regardless of which route the message arrives by. There *was* some brokenness before, as I pointed out to Matthias. He explained that it was caused by the fact that he was forwarding messages from one account to another, then replying from the second account. So *his* replies had broken threading information, because he was replying to his own forwarded message; not my message to which he *should* have been replying. But it's OK now because I'm keeping in him directly in Cc. So he can reply directly to my messages, and doesn't have to forward the list traffic to the account that he replies from. > [1] If the CC person is also on the mailing list, the mailing list > software doesn't send a copy to them, hence the only copy the person > gets is a one without any of the mailing list headers, That's an *option* in mailman; you can turn it off. -- dwmw2 _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
