The "References:" and "In-Reply-To:" headers, which are used by threaded readers to show which posts are replies to which others (so in the same thread). See the thread views at e.g. http://www.mail-archive.com/cygwin AT cygwin DOT com/msg88680.html http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin/98438/focus=98448 Every mailer automatically adds these headers when you start a post using the "Reply" or "Reply all" options, but not when you create a new post from scratch. Deleting the subject and body text doesn't get rid of them. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
