Re: Message response
Sorry, 4 other news groups all show up threaded. Matt's reply makes sense
though.

Matt,
let's not get testy. In my sheltered experience with news readers they have always
shown up threaded so I assumed that was the norm. TX 4 the education.

Re: Message response
One newsgroup I'm on is moderated and requires an email address be registered
with the moderation software before posts will be automatically accepted to the
group, or they must be hand-moderated. They can also be posted by emailing a
post to the moderation bot, if they're not being accepted normally. If done
that way, the threading is immediately broken as well.
There are tons of reasons threads can break, be split up, etc., most simply due
to differences or limitations in the technology.
