So why are you doing that?

Maybe I didn't understand it correctly, but I got the impression that
you are reading the messages from the mailing list archives at
lists.ubuntu.com using your web browser, which is insane if you're
following a list daily (and don't just want to lookup a few old mail,
or get a link to them for someone else's reference).

The purpose of a mailing list is that you subscribe to it so that
you'll get a copy of all mails send there, which you can then handle
the way you want with your favorite client (be it mutt, Thunderbird or
Gmail's web interface).

If you don't want to subscribe, you still could use this interface:
http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.devel.discuss (where you get
all replies to a thread in a single page, and from where you can reply
to them with a click). Or this read-only view:
http://news.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.devel.discuss . Or use a
newsgroup reader like someone else already mentioned.

Cheers,
