Emails have ID's.. which many mail clients use to lump together threads with.. such as ThunderBird and SeaMonkey. Hitting "reply", when wanting to create a "new" thread, uses the ID of a wrong thread. ..which in turn can mess things up for the viewer. It also can mess up archiving in some situations. If you do this on any other programming forum you would be pummeled with syntactical stones! ;-) Donovan -- Donovan Brooke WebDNA Software Corporation http://www.webdna.us **[Square Bracket Utopia]** Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
