There are now 4 threads related to your issue.

I see only one.

First off, I don't know why the title of a ng thread would start with
"".

Second, none of the 4 threads appear to contain your original post,
instead the first post in each thread appears to be a response to
previous post.

Do you (or anyone) have any idea why this is happening?

It happens when you don't have the post in the thread to which the "" is
responding. True for you? No idea.

In my case, using OE, I occasionally reset each folder (to dump old
messages), then reload the newest 300, then compact all folders (to tidy up
the dbx files). After doing that, any replies to a message I no longer have
will appear as a thread with "".

I am forced to use GG at work. Currently I see 34 posts across 4 threads related to the topic. None of them have Gary's OP as the first post, so I'm guessing that there are more posts that I can't see.

About an hour ago, there was a 4th thread entitled Screen Door Closer installation with a single post in it from Col (Troll) but that post has disappeared from my list.

I don't use OE (Agent), but do you think the issue with posts no
longer appearing could have anything to do with "I occasionally reset
each folder (to dump old messages), then reload the newest 300?"

As far as I can see there were only two (2) original threads:
Screen Door Closer installation
Screen Door Closer

All activity has been to one or the other.
