Argh, sorry about that :(

I think my workflow for replying to threads I am not already a part of is flawed. I usually control-click the reply mailto: link on the message in lore.kernel.org/git. That launches Gmail then I manually craft a message and send from there. I will spend some time investigating my workflow more deeply.

Thank you for the helpful note!
