Agreed ... 99% . If you are using a real email client :-) , thread are
built upon the message reference: erasing subject and body won't do,
the new reply will still be considered part of an existing thread.
Just start using a new message !! (again, my real email client allows
me to have favorite addresses which are accessible in less than a sec
). For those wondering, my real email client is "TheBat!"
(www.ritlabs.com).

Thanks shimi for bringing up that subject which is also part, if I
remember well, of the metafaq sent by Dom Latter.
