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.
