... but the official archives sorts this thread correctly. Isn't the
issue really that the marc archive has broken threading?
For example, see
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2005-February/thread.html
The "Test, please ignore" messages are sorted this way:
# Test, Please ignore., Gustavo Seabra
* Re: Test, Please ignore. [Solved], Gustavo Seabra
o Re: Test, Please ignore. [Solved], jim lawrence
(in other words, adding "solved" does NOT break the thread.
