I don't know if it's the case here, but people do sometimes reply to an 
existing email to the list and just change the subject line (presumably 
to save looking up the address for the list). That isn't enough to make 
it a different thread - there are separate headers in the email which 
link messages into threads - so the new message shows up as part of the 
original thread.

Another disadvantage of doing this is that some other people use mail 
clients or news readers which they can set to automatically ignore any 
further messages in threads they're not interested in or can't help 
with. So those people wouldn't see the messages asking about a different 
problem in an existing thread, when they might otherwise have been able 
to help with that new problem.

So it can be in the asker's best interest to create a new thread rather 
than replying in an existing one. To do that, they need to create a 
completely new email and send it to the list address (users AT 
global.libreoffice.org in this case).

Mark.
