Can anyone provide and explanation or example of how to encode or decode the
mail header field "thread-index'?

I've searched on Yahoo and Google for more than 2 weeks for hours and hours
each day trying to find any pertinent information, as well as the Microsoft
MSDN site and the most I got was "thread-index is computed from the topic
and references fields" with no futher explanation...

Thanks so much in advance
John Doran

It can be set or received using the ADODB Fields collection:

Dim Flds
Dim theResult
set Flds = CreateObject("ADODB.Fields")
theResult = Flds("urn:schema:mailheader:thread-index")

there is no such header. if some software creates this header it should be
named x-thread-index, i.e., an experimental (non-standard) header.

Yes there is. It's part of the mailheader schema.

urn:schema:mailheader:thread-index

What mailheader schema, and according to which internet standards
documentation?

Anyway, use of such a header won't be usefull until it is adopted
everywhere or even made a mandatory header line. Instead you can thread
messages using Message-ID: and In-Reply-To: header lines.

sorry, shoulda specified. These are based on XML namespaces defined by the
W3C. I'm using them now with CDO for Exchange 2000.
