It's an illusion that your client creates due to the settings you have
chosen. (His message appears in this thread because the subject is
the same. It appears according to sent date and time. This will
often create the wrong position in a thread.) His message doesn't
contain the necessary headers to do proper threading. In particular,
there is no In-Reply-To or References header in his message. Indeed,
your message correctly includes these headers, but fails to reference
his message, Message-ID: <20131201143218.102640(a)gmx.com>. Your own
client doesn't know Patrick's message is part of this thread.
Hi Gary,
That has been discussed to the ends of the universe. He and several
others and I use the same Mozilla Thunderbird email client. It works for
me and not them. After (limited time and skills here) the only obvious
difference that I can see is that 'they' use the Fedora packaged
Thunderbird and I do not. Does this make a difference? How the heck
would I know? I'm the dummy. :-)
