Nope. We haven't moved yet. What are you talking about anyway, what "difficulties" with "post sequence numbering"???

In [NavList 11171] I tried to understand the difficulties experienced by Joel Jacobs through his account in [NavList 11167].

Meanwhile you already have given your view point on this subject in [NavList 11183].

While thinking over Joel's difficulties, I wrongly assumed that he was accessing our NavList posts/messages directly from your server http://www.fer3.com/arc/. Actually Joel seems to be receiving NavList directly through his own e-mail provider.

Following my wrong assumption that Joel kept connecting directly to http://www.fer3.com/arc/, I though that he had "difficulties" to keep track of "who said what in reply to whom".

In NavList current posts numbering is - very understandably - performed according to chronological submission order. This sometimes might be a little confusing when you attempt getting an accurate picture of a complex thread and attempt accurately reconstructing in chronological order "who said what in reply to whom ?".

On the ground of my misinterpretation of Joel's problem, I then thought (loud) [NavList 11171] that a "tree view presentation" might solve his problems.

Sorry for this wrong analysis.

Meanwhile and still, the "threaded message view" philosophy is an idea up on the table which you just mentioned in [NavList 11184] and to which in also replied in [NavList 11190].

Thank you again for all the time you keep devoting to our NavList Community.

Best Regards

Antoine
