If you include the Message-ID of the article to which you are
following up in the attribution, it makes it easy for everyone to
find.

How does one use the message ID (other than on google)?


With my newsreader client, Forte Agent, you just right-click on the
message-id and select Launch, and it jumps to that message.

That technique does nothing useful in Outlook Express. I'd rather see
proper attributions in posts, as even using the "Show all Messages" option
is limited by the server mirroring the NG. If it only caches a relatively
small number of messages, the original source message may be clipped.
