Hello:

Being new to this list, I am not exactly sure how to respond to a
thread without accidentally generating a new thread.

I've clicked on the button that says something like Respond to this
poster" or something to that effect, but that sends a message directly
to the list member, which has actually worked out fine.

Other times, I've actually wanted to start a different therad,

Thanks for the help and suggestins,

Jeff

It depends on what newsreader you use.

As for myself, I use Mozilla Thunderbird (and can highly recommend it).
In Thunderbird, "responding" to a message does what you'd expect it to
do, as does sending a new message.

I see that you are using Google Groups. I cannot recommend that. Besides
being flooded with spam, there are serious formatting issues.

You should find a newsserver (most ISPs provide one) and try a dedicated
newsreader application.

In Google Groups, you want the "Reply" button/link. It is the leftmost
in the line below the post.

But, more than that, OP wants a decent newsreader... :)
