Hi All, I was wondering what other people think about an option to split threads apart (in a similar way to how they can be joined). A use case: people that find an old email to a certain address and use it to compose a reply (after clearing the subject). This sees a (decent) mail client insert the References and In-Reply-To headers, etc from the original thread. Sup happily uses these to insert this new message/thread into an old one. Do others run into this too?

It''s not persistent, but it always word well during a session. -Ben -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ben Walton <bdwalton at gmail.com> When one person suffers from a delusion, it is called insanity.
