Do you think you could sort out your newsreader settings please - your
posts are showing as a new thread each time, ....

I'd suggest you get yourself a compliant newsreader. Or learn how to use
the one you have.

It is compliant, your posts show as a new thread, with no attributions
showing.
Notice there is no 'Reference' line, which I think is the main problem,
as Newsreaders cannot tell what it is related to.

From:
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1036.txt

2.2.5. References

This field lists the Message-ID's of any messages prompting the
submission of this message. It is required for all follow-up
messages, and forbidden when a new subject is raised....

...The purpose of the "References" header is to allow messages to be
grouped into conversations by the user interface program. This
allows conversations within a newsgroup to be kept together
