Hi Ryan,

> I just joined the list.
As a first tip: Don't use the "reply" feature of your mail client when
you really mean "compose new mail". Even though your email client
doesn't show you, when you use "reply" it adds a "In-Reply-To" header
that allows cool mail clients to tell which messages belong to which
thread (even when the subject changes, or when two threads have the same
subject).

I know it's a bit more work (you'll have to type the list address or
use your addressbook), but it'll make your messages more correct and a
lot of recipients less annoyed :-)

Gr.

Matthijs
