Thanks John L. Your code did the trick, and the page looks right now. Sorry to post this as a new thread, but SeaMonkey is not allowing me to send it as a reply for some stupid reason. |

No, he didn't. He started a new thread, manually filling out the Subject header, and when doing so didn't capitalize the first letter of "Re", as his news client would have had he replied. Had his post been a reply without quoting, it also would have had a Refernces header. Hmm your right the reference links to bot connect up, but strangely |

That's because it's only using the Subject header to thread, not the References header, as it should. So, for example, it will assume (incorrectly) that every post with, for instance, the Subject header help is part of the same thread. This is why References headers are superior for threading -- they distinguish *real* threads. The moz news clients aren't real sharp; look at how brain-dead their newsgroups filtering is. |

I concede your are right, even with my Mnenhy & MessageIDFinder extensions that improve it, it is just not as good as a dedicated newsreader. I have a copy of Gravity.

As for filtering, which is probably the worst fault of Thunderbird, Gravity it just about a tie with it. You can filter on three specific headers, but beyond that, you can only filter on "headers", and rules you set up in that manner are applied against *all headers of which Gravity is aware*; i.e., you can't specify *which* headers to apply a rule to, which is a big capability gap. |

As for me, I recognize that while a Swiss army knife may be okay for the occasional small job, it's not going to be able to do as well with most of them as the stand-alone purpose-built tools will. |

Well other than Gravity, what else you you recommend. Now all my Linux boxes are servers, I am testing out a Ubuntu desktop but since my experience has been Mandrake|Redhat flavor the Debian taken a little time to get use to. I think I really prefer KDE over Gnome. I'm still futzing with the new XP box to get it more like my W2k! |
