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

Don't shoot the messenger Dave, Alan's comment was a fair one - your
message to which he replied contained no References headers at all,
and hence was rightly treated a new post by standards compliant
newsreaders.

It shows up in the same thread on both Pluto - where it was posted
from - and Thunderbird. In time of posting order.

I suspect that (like tin which I use) they allow threading by subject
as well as message ID so cope with imperfect posters.

Of course. I wasn't replying to any particular post so just replied to the
subject. If a newsreader can't cope with that it's badly designed.
