One other thing, he responded to the OT post by first deleting the
"OT" in the subject line, thus creating an entire thread of OT stuff
which is thus not marked OT.
Used to piss me off when folks did that until I realized it was MSFT, in
their infinite wisdom, removing the control character, ":" in the subject
header.
Best way to insure that "OT" stays in the subject header is to use it
without the colon, as you did.
I don't think that's it. I just posted three test messages with
replies at alt.test.
One was with "OT: test" in the subject. The second was with "O/T test"
in the subject. The third was with "O/T: test" in the subject.
Then I replied to all three. In each case the subject was fully
preserved complete with the "OT" or "O/T",
I vote that he removed it.
