Thanks for the quick reply.  list-charset-chars shows the arrow chars
correctly, which pointed out to me that I cut/pasted your original post
incorrectly...  Oops.  So, fixing that, I get your tree display nicely on an
X emacs window.  Thanks.

Of course, now that it works, I want it to be different...;)  
I (think I) want it to look like:

mark score [Author]  Subject
             |---> Author 2
                 |-->Author 3
             |---> Author 4

A quick look at the manual doesn't seem to show how to do this, though.  The
%B mark constructs the arrows together with the subject field, so if I
just do "...%B%f I get the followup lines the way I want them, but the first
line will be "Subject Author" instead of "Author Subject".  Is there a way
to control the construction of the %B variable, or to just get the "tree
components" of the variable (without the subject on the first article of a
thread?)

Thanks,
