Hi.  Please recall item #2 on the mailing list FAQ:

2) When posting to the list, don't just ignore subject lines, or reply
   to messages that have nothing to do with what you're about to say.
   Sophisticated mail readers (like the ones many of the core
   developers use) thread conversations, and quite a few of us have
   our mail readers set up to totally ignore threads we've previously
   marked as uninteresting.  Landing an unrelated message in the middle
   of a totally different conversation which many of the core folk
   have marked as 'uninteresting' will just get you ignored.  We'll
   never see your mail.  We get hundereds of messages a day, and list
   mail simply has to take a low priority through batch handling like
   that.

   BTW, just editing the subject line is not enough to keep your
   message out of a thread if you hit 'Reply'.  A seperate header is
   embedded in the message called 'In-Reply-To'.  At a guess, the
   pretty graphical mail readers don't let you edit it, or even tell
   you that it's there.  If you want to start a new subject or
   conversation, hit 'New Message' please.  Not 'Reply'.

Thanks,
Monty
