followup
A follow-up is any form of communication or action that is done to continue, review, or monitor a situation, activity, or progress after an initial event, meeting, conversation, or medical treatment. It is often done to ensure the effectiveness or correctness of the initial action, assess any changes, or to gather more information.
The New Hacker's Dictionary
followup
[common] On Usenet, a posting generated in response to another posting (as opposed to a reply, which goes by email rather than being broadcast). Followups include the ID of the parent message in their headers; smart news-readers can use this information to present Usenet news in ‘conversation’ sequence rather than order-of-arrival. See thread.
