new idea: re-thread article

new idea: re-thread article

[Wes hardaker]

Ever annoyed by the fact that you have a group that is a 'keep-around'
type list, where all the articles are important and you want to keep
them around for a while (bug/code lists, etc).  Then, some wacko uses
some wacko mailing agent producing a wacked (or more likely missing,
but I had to use the word 'wack' in there again) References: header?
Wouldn't it be nice if there was a command to have gnus re-thread that
article under another previously specified article (yes, it would have
to open and modify the message file).  # C-n M-x rethread (point to #).

Just a wish,
Wes

Go to the parent-to-be.
Type #.
Go to the wrongly-threaded msg.
Type T ^.

It's been done already.

Whoops.  Last I checked I thought it didn't actually do a permenant
modification, only a temporary one (ie, current buffer).  Shoot me :-)
