       Thakns Tim for the reply. This shows how much I know, not much:-)
       I was under the the impression that companies and devs would make it a  priority
       to write software that would meet all the standards to minimize any problems
       like thread breaking; for people who likes to sort their email in a threaded 
       fashion.

       I have never used usenet  and I have only used Thunderbird and untill 
       recently windows phone email client and i already think Windows Phone 
       email client stinks because it breaks threads. I just began
       using Sylpheed on Fedora the other day,  well see how that goes.
       Thanks again for the reply and explanation.
