> Is there a way to 'free' a message from a thread?

Lucky for you, forced thread joins aren't preserved across restarts of
sup...unless this has changed and I didn't notice?  (It's not a
feature I use, so that is possible.)

Out of curiosity, where do people find the most use for this feature?
I have a few people out there using braindead mail clients that don't
preserve enough headers when replying that they end up starting a new
thread in sup...I might use the thread join if it were persisted.

The other feature that would be really cool is to split a thread.  I
interact with several people that will start a new email conversation
by opening an old message, changing subject (and maybe recipients) and
then sending it.  This preserves the old headers, which sees sup
append the now disjoint new topic to the old thread.

Thanks
-Ben
