16 It's all based on your email client, and how you have it configured.
17 I use Thunderbird, Outlook, and the Gmail webgui all between different
18 computers and different accounts, and lists, etc. I have them
19 configured to view messages as threaded. Some people don't do that.
20 But enough people on mailing lists, especially UNIX/linux based ones,
21 do do that, that it's become a "best practice". And "net-iquette"
22 tends to favor best practices.
