Actually ezmlm-idx, the list manager we use, doesn't rely on message IDs or reference headers for exactly this reason. All of the threading in the archives is done by normalizing the subject. [snip]
Aha. Thanks for the, Christopher. It's always a good day when I learn something new. While this does help with the archives, I see the normalizing the subject would be difficult in the "real time" of a mailing list. Or am I missing something?
Not really. I have mutt sort by by threads and unset strict_threads so that both the references and subject information is used.
