Seconded, please use a subject like: "Latest updates 2.5.01.1971" This will show exactly what it is all about and replies to the thread will be put at the right spot. Right now replies to "Latest updates" are scattered in my newsreader in at least 5-6 different places and if a guy replies to the latest post by Tony one can be 50% sure it does end up in another thread than the original. This happens most certainly if the reply is being composed using the Microsoft Outlook 2000 email client. I know because when I reply from work my replies invariably wind up in a separate thread with the subject "Re: <original subject>" instead of in the proper place, whereas if I do it in the newsreader it gets to the correct thread. Many people use email clients... /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
