I beg to differ on this...I have NO control over whether messages appear

How would you explain that your message just now (which I'm replying to)
appears properly threaded?
Just a suggestion...look at the email address it came through...The threaded
ones are done on the web view at home, while the others are through email at
work.

It was a socratic question.  The point was that you certainly do have control
over whether your messages appear threaded.


Actually, I believe that the threading feature isn't even a Mail header
item.
Actually, it is.  See RFC822 "Standard for the Format of ARPA Internet Text
Messages" and RFC1138, RFC1148, RFC1327 and RFC2156. • I'll have a look when and if I ever get time.
From what I understand, it is a NEWS headder item, [...]
Yes, it is also an NNTP header item.
But what about SMTP [I think that's correct]

Already answered.  RTRFC.


It would seem that the result is that you are prevented from posting
messages from work so long as your employer is running the broken SMTP
message-transfer software which strips out the 'References:' header that
your mailer had originally inserted.  Get your employer to replace the
broken software and you can post from work.  Nothing on the server is
preventing you from posting from home or from posting from work via NNTP
or HTTP.
Actually, the work server prevents NNTP and HTTP from work, by not giving
anyone permission to use them.

I meant that nothing on the lugnet.com server is preventing you from posting
from work via NNTP or HTTP.
