Thorbjørn:
I agree, the email client adds that information by default, but someone,
somewhere, somehow has to parse it and organise it into threads et al. I
neither parse nor arrange your feedback mails at Trolltech, and when you
write "used by many email clients and list archives to display" does
that mean that you don't do the feedback email sorting at Trolltech, and
have a separate entity do it instead? Otherwise, what I wrote in my
previous email still appears to apply... :-)
To avoid confusion, you should make it clear that users should initiate
a new thread by creating a new email from scratch with a new subject
line. Again, my apologies for any potential trouble or annoyances.
Regards,
Victor
