Loris, Apparently you replied to a different email then changed the subject. Email clients that thread conversations based on "in-reply-to" will lump your supposedly new thread in with the one you replied to. That guarantees a reduced audience of readers, especially considering the email you replied to. You should repost by composing a brand new email. Greg -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
