I'm getting a Newer link, but it doesn't seem to work.
One thing that has been bugging me is that we've got inconsistent naming. When viewing a message, we get a "Message List" link, which takes us to a page claiming to be "Thread List", which is a good name for that view.
Then, from the "Thread List" we have a link to "Subject List." These seem more like synonyms than something different to me. It seems that our current "Subject List" should probably be named "Message List."
My proposal, then, is this:
- In a message, change the text of the current "Message List" link to "Thread List"
- Change all references to "Subject List" to "Message List"
- Add a link from within a message to the newly named "Message List".
I prefer to browse the non-threaded top-level view, and it's somewhat annoying to have to go to the threaded view before being able to get back to the individual message list.
