Thunderbird flashes up an error in the middle of your screen if you try 
and send a message with nothing in the Subject field in the Header and 
won't send it until you either type in the Subject or "force" TB to send 
the message without a Subject.

However, it will accept posts which have the Subject field blank but, 
nevertheless, it threads them correctly because it threads on message ID 
and not subject.

Which is what Christopher is on about I suspect when he talks about 
"subjectless posts" (or whatever the words he used).
