That was the point. The Bcc: does keep the thread going. It is put in
the thread as a reply to the email that you 'Reply-List' used.
If it an original post it appears in the list in you email clinet and
any replies are tacked to it as if it.

A 'hack' if you wish but it does work and it does solve this situation.
