I sometimes get this, and have always put it down to the time stamp on the message.

Are klarinet messages time-stamped by Sneezy, or by the original sender. If it could be different
servers attaching a time to the messages, then when my email client sorts the messages by received
date/time, a post with a later time stamp than its response would appear further down the list?

Or am I talking rubbish, and it's really my mail server which puts a time stamp on the messages???
