In my tests where replies go to the list, when a person uses the email client? So far a reply to the original message and a reply to a reply to a reply all go in the same thread. Is this standard? Do I have to warn users not to have endless Re re re re?
Yes, the threading is implemented using a bunch of email headers, especially "In-Reply-To" and "References". If you reply to a message, it will go to the same thread.
Did you expect something else to happen?
And the other question is what happens if a user sends a message via email with a new subject? Does the list accept it as a new thread?
Like I mentioned before, the threading happens with email headers and not using the Subject. So, changing the subject will continue to keep the thread.
If you want a new thread, you send in a new email to the list's posting address instead of replying to an old thread.
This should be one of my last big questions.
Thank you.
