A question about the user list

Hi,
I am confused on how to reply to a thread that was there even before I
subscribed to this user list? Can someone please help me on that?

Regards,
Amit

Thank you. I would look into the Nabble option.

Most of the apache lists are archived by Nabble. If you have a Nabble
account then you can just click on the archived message to reply in-thread.

Threads are just implemented by sending a mail with the "In-Reply-To"
header referring to the original mail.
So theoretically it is possible to reply to an email as long as you know
the id of the original mail. But I don't know of any email clients that
allow that to be entered directly.

Simon
