The reason I asked was because the way that you read can influence how you
reply. With the web interface, following a thread is easy. With mail it's
still easy, but not quite so easy. With a newsreader, I unfortunately don't
have any experience. At least those are my opinions, yours may differ. I
would suggest reading through the web for a day or two when you get the
chance. It will give you a much better grasp of how things work andhow they
inter-relate.
