I'm sorry, I still don't get it.

a) "start": I removed all 'References:' lines and changed subject to
"Something (was: something else)", followups by others carry only
"Something", does this qualify as "start"?

b) So when I just followup, re-followups won't be highlighted?
Strange, I had the feeling they were, too, just not always.

c) "know MID in advance": my News-Host generates MID and returns
them back to tin, so it never knows about them, why it still works?
