What happens when you break mail, in one way or another: Your
replies
are not seen with the messages that they're related to. They get

thread when all the messages in that thread are scattered randomly
amongst hundreds of other messages, especially when it's important to be
able to follow the progress of something along the thread (and no,
quoting the entire thread in each message is not the answer). Some
helpers will give up helping after finding it a pain to follow an
prolonged on-going conversation. Some will give up immediately. And if
this converstion was on traditional usenet, rather than an email list,
you'd be needing flameproof pants by now. ;-)
Well, I agree but I simply reply in Firefox and by typing
www.gmail.com and nothing else!! This is the only way I do. Once I
log-in, I don't log-out ever (unless I have to check other gmail
account also, which I rarely use) and even if I have to use PC in
two-three days, I get directly Inbox because I didn't log out earlier!
I know since I am using Linux and with the addons like No Script, this
all is secured even when I am not logged out. But really I never
thought such technical aspects which are written above!
