    Thomas,

    You're exactly right, which is something else I failed to include
in the original email.  Hence the "Request For Comments" style.

    It usually is only when the user sends a new message to the list,
forwards it, copy-and-pastes it, et cetera.  However, sometimes it
will create a new thread even upon doing a reply-all to the list with
a subject change.  Whether the client changes the email ID based on
that or what, I honestly don't know the answer, but the 5.2.3 segfault
message is yet again a relevant example.  Zbignew actually did just
hit reply-all on that one.

    Further, I think Jason Pruim's suggestion of adding to the welcome
email opens up an interesting point.  Can the NEWBIE GUIDE that Jay
Blanchard, et al, have co-created be included in the welcome mail?
For people who actually want to be a part of this mailing list
community, it would be a great get-acquainted README-style message
that could help prevent some flames.

If at first you don't succeed, stick to what you know best so that you
can make enough money to pay someone else to do it for you.
