No, I'm not.

There's two header lines from the your message which started the current
topic:

Note the "In-Reply-To". You have started this message by replying to an
existing message and changed the subject. You shouldn't do this, as it
gets threading all wrong.

This can be avoided by starting a new mail message to the list address
for new topics.

Someone who knows that the actions described above are called thread
hijacking, or threadjacking.
