You know you have the OP killfiled.
Read it or not?


The Re also appears if the thread was started in another NG and
someone has added the URG address to crosspost it.
There might be a genuine reason for that but often its a way of
spreading spam or offensive content.


I think the Re, refers to a reference to the original message
posted, when you reply to a previous message it is always then
shown as a Re.
