Let me explain a little more; guess I didn't get the details
clear the first time around.  If I hit Reply in Pine, it
doesn't capture the Subject field from the message I'm
replying to, even though I can see it right there in the
original header.  It doesn't matter what the original mailer
was, either.  I've duplicated the problem when replying to
messages created by Eudora Pro (Mac version), Outlook
Express (Windows version) Mh, and Pine itself.  In all
cases, it makes it "Re: your mail" in the reply.

And of course, my machine at work doesn't do this.  It gets
them all right :-)

Thanks,

Jonathan
