You can change the title to a thread you have posted quite easily.

Go to your thread, you will be the first posting, and click on 'Edit' ....You can then change the 'Thread Subject' heading to anything you like.

Hi Paula, as you know I send loads of messages out advising people how to find and acknowledge their replies.

I am now (when time permits) going back to those who have opened my message but not responded to me or on their thread, and asking them to reply on their thread, if the info found for them was helpful.

What's the betting I get called some names!! I'll give it a go for a while though. Cx
