The most obvious thing to do is compose a fresh message.  If you check
the message headers, you'll see a line like "In-Reply_to:
<4A45D6B6.8040108-PeCUgM4zDv73fQ9qLvQP4Q at public.gmane.org>".  This number, which came from your reply
is used for threading.  So, when someone uses threaded view, when
reading email, they'll see your new topic mixed in with the old.  When
you create a new thread, this problem doesn't occur.
