Are you starting new threads by replying to messages and then changing the subject? The References and In-Reply-To headers in your messages suggest as much. For example, you recently started a thread with a subject of "Question about the NAME type used in pg_proc and pg_class". That message has the following headers: References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> These headers imply that you replied to Tom Lane's message in the "Optimizing query" thread (message [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and then you changed the Subject header. When you do that, some threaded displays will display your message in the thread you replied to because those headers say that the message is part of that thread. For example: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2005-08/thrd2.php#00718 If you want to start a new thread, use your mail client's equivalent of "New Message" instead of "Reply To". If you *are* using "New Message" then your mail client (Thunderbird 1.0.2 on Windows, or so it claims) appears to be broken. -- Michael Fuhr ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
