Michel,

it could very well be possible, I dont know, what I do know that when I posted my message the other (previous) was not seen by me, - otherwise I would have hastly remove it - I noticed it the next day when I received some remarks about a the fact it was already replied I searched byu using the button. Al together not a big thing, I just wanted to share you with my feelings that according to me with a small change such a thing can be avoided by the user, just open up the whole thread when you post a reply (maybe even in your personal preference)

Best regards,

Koen
