OT - Please start new threads for new subjects

[Guest guest]

I would like to ask that folks please start new threads when they are

starting new subjects.

It is very confusing when a change of subject occurs in the middle of

an ongoing thread, and even more confusing when both subjects are

getting replies in the same thread. It also makes it more difficult

to search on specific topics in old posts.

Could one of the experienced mail-access members please post

instructions on how to start a new thread when receiving the group via

email?

For web-access users:

When accessing the group through the web, it is very easy to start a

new topic. There are " Start Topic " links on the right-hand side at

the top and bottom of every page, and there is also a " Post " link in

the little navigation box at the top left of the page. Any of these

links will start a new thread.

The blue " Reply " button at the end of a post inserts a comment

into the current thread, even when the subject is changed. The Reply

button is easier to see, since it's a button and the others are just

word links. But if you're starting a new subject you really need to

use one of the other links to start a new thread.
