Ok. It's just that it's very unusual for mailing lists (at least the ones I
have experience with), but whatever.

I'm afraid I didn't understand your point. When you say "start a thread", do
you mean changing the subject line (as I did)? It's my understanding that
people in general prefer that you change the subject line, if the topic
changes, as it otherwise makes it much harder to follow the discussion...
(and you may have to wade through a lot of postings having nothing to do
with the subject line, or miss an interesting discussion, for the same
reason).

But then again, maybe also these things work differently "here", than other
places... :)

Terje
