I suspect double posting would be much more annoying than the non-threading,
(although I can't really speak for anyone else). Actually the non-threading
doesn't really bother me, I read messages in sequential order in loc.au
(either "forwards" from most recent, or "backwards" from where I left off
last time), I follow threads in other groups though.
If you want to post at home, maybe you can type down your thoughts
throughout the day without sending them and then wait until you get home?
I'm not saying you should do that, just trying to come up with suggestions.
I expect that way would be frustrating :)
Or you could get really unnecessarily complex: What you need is a friend
with a threading friendly system who can set up a specific store and
forward email account for you with a script attached that can insert your
references header from the message body into the actual header and then
send onto lugnet. i.e you'd email to that account rather than lugnet and
it would be automated to do the rest (Ok, so that's not practical, I
realise that! :) )
Has Todd put you in the too-hard/not worth it basket? (I take it you
must be the only lugnetter with this particular problem). I know he's
really busy with Suzanne's illness and lugnet in general, just wondering
if you've ever got a "no can do" response from him.
