Why do ProLine sites use that ugly "In-Reply-To: message from *" stuff?
C'mon, conform! :-)

Well, it's better than having no reference at all to whose message is being
replyed to.  Some systems don't readily allow you to reference what message
the user is commenting on, thereby leaving the reader in the dark as to what
message the comment is related to.
