That's probably what gmail is basing theirs on as well.
Looking at this thread and then the "changed" one... shows up as two
different threads in gmail.
Then gmail is broken, as I have suspected. I wonder what else is
broken about it? No, don't answer, I won't use gmail unless they fix
threading.
I use mutt, and it handles the threading correctly. I did not see a
new thread when the subject changed. But then the authors of mutt go
out of their way to be compliant with the relevant RFCs.
