i got one too - i was going to ask if anyone else minded that my
mua was fully rfc 2822 compliant (before telling usa.net that they
have to rewrite their webmail app)...

i like how the examples cited are crap-html/mime oriented (msn, 
exchange, and aol?)

Is anyone else getting this junk regarding the list? And can we put a stop

Granted in a perfect world everyone runs software throughout the entire
enterprise that is on the bleeding edge of the latest proposed standards,
but some of us only have so big of a budget.

Hi,
I read your messages in mailing list.

Your using mailer(MUA) does not seems to support In-Reply-To nor
References
field. These field is defined in RFC-2822.
If these field does not be outputted when you reply, tree construction
will be break every time you post the messages to mailing list.
It is inconvenient for the others.

Please please change your mailer for the public good,
at least when you post to mailing list.

Today almost mailers support these field(at least In-Reply-To)
except for the following mailers.

MSN hotmail
Exchange Server <= 2000 (Exchange Server 2003 will support In-Reply-To.)
Lotus Notes < 6.0
MIME-Tools
AOL mailer
dtmail
Novell GroupWise
foxmail

regards,
