For me, I mark messages that I consider worthy of a reply, but
something to do later. Most of that time (ie, recently) that
"later" turns out to me a few months. By then, the main topic
could surely have wained or diminished in messaging activity,
but it doesn't mean that a new resurfaced reply couldn't be of
interested to watching eyes. Most people are just lurkers it
seems, anyway.
