You replied to someone else's message, changed the subject, and typed your question into the body of that reply. The email list to which you send your messages is threaded, which means it tracks replies to the original message. If you look at the email archives for your message, you'll see a "References" line at the botton which refers back to the email message you replied to, with it's original subject: If you reply to someone else's message to start your own, new question, it makes finding your message in the archives harder, as well as messing up the original thread. People who use email clients that understand threading (and it's not that unusual nowadays to find email clients with this capability) and also newsreaders also see the corrupted thread. We ask that you don't do this for this reason. If you have a new question to ask, send a new message to the list. > -----Original Message----- > From: cygwin-owner On Behalf Of Larry Hall (Cygwin) > Sent: Wednesday, December 24, 2008 3:25 AM > To: cygwin > Subject: Re: Is it possible to install cigwyn application passing the setup? ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ We also ask that you don't quote message headers in your reply: Note that I've edited your headers in my reply to sanitize them. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
