I found it that the "In-Reply-To:" Header Line have not been appended to all the e-mails created by the ASF committers from BEA.com (welcome!), due to the Mail Client Software I suppose. This means that we can not view the messages in "thread" mode. In this situation, '"done" messages ( = "patch applied" messages) on the dev list' would become something disorder. I am not sure how we can solve this (recommend the upgrade of Microsoft Exchange/Outlook? ;-), however, I did want to put my concerns about this.
