It would be really nice if this could also somehow work to enable
non-subscribers browsing the archives to reply to specific posts (as I am
doing now). I've no idea how this could be done though.
The mailto: link in the archived messages includes a message-id, which I
assume is to enable threading to work properly when that message is replied
to. Unfortunately it contains the message-id of the previous message, ie the
one the message being read is in reply to, so this can't work. It appears to
be intended to be used as the In-Reply-To header for the new message, which
would be incorrect, unless I have misunderstood the reason for it being
there (which is quite likely).
