Just a reminder on how to join to join the UK_Selfbuild group - been asked to re-post this for people who wish to send to colleagues etc.

The UK_Selfbuild group is an internet based group hosted by YahooGroups, a free, easy-to-use email group service.

By joining UK_Selfbuild, you will be able to exchange messages with other group members. YahooGroups also makes it easy to store photos and files, co-ordinate events and more.

Is it possible to 'thread' the messages?

Netscape mail reader will do this for you - I guess others will do too. The subject count tends to be low, so if the subject is if no interest to you, its easy to skip over lots of messages. There are a couple of known experts, who post regularly, which means on some subjects you get advicse that does not need hours of work to verify, only to find its wrong.

So then I presume you have to have all the messages delivered to your 'in-box'?

S'pose I could set up M$OE to sort them to a folder for me?

Very easy to do that with Thunderbird.
