How is this a reply about text editing, linebreaks and so on?
It isn't.
Please, if you're starting a new topic, click "Compose..." or the email address, rather than "Reply..."
He did. Check the subject line.
Changing the subject doesn't stop the message also being a reply to an existing thread. The MessageID is preserved when you R[eply] and many (good) mail programs use this to show the messages as a thread. Hence what I think MJ Ray was saying was that this appeared in the message thread about "text editing, linebreaks" whereas it should have been a new thread.
Ah yes - the "References:" header. I'd missed that (I don't thread my email. I don't work that way.)
