Test
I wonder whether this message will appear in the 5/8/2005 thread of Diana's
as well, or whether Outlook Express just does that when both the Subject and the From are the same? Joanna |

Intriguing: this message also appeared in the 5/8/2005 thread, even though I
din not reply to any of the messages in that thread, but posted a new message with the subject Test. So it's not just one's own old subjects that one can't reuse without confusing Outlook Express into placing the message in the old thread, any message with the same subject that was used by someone else before may appear grouped with the old thread. That's so weird! Joanna "J Fortuna" wrote in message news:1Fmye.8163$Yb4.1225@trnddc08...

I sometimes have a message show up that seems to be a reply to a really old post but it usually turns out to be a new thread that joined in with an old one. I have my news reader set to keep messages for a month and then they are dumped. After that time, it would show up as a new thread, of course. Steve |
