Hi Andreas!
With jwz, Balsa threads messages first by references and then by
subject. What you show might happen if:
- the original message's ID isn't listed in the References headers of
the replies;
AND
- the subject in the replies has some character other than a simple
space following the "Re:" (perhaps a "non-breaking space").
IIRC the guy who broke the threading sent the mails via a news-gateway,
that could account for both methods failing.
Balsa uses g_ascii_isspace() to trim off the whitespace between "Re:"
and what it assumes to be the original subject, and it can be fooled.
I'm not really into the intrinsics of programming, nor the code of
either balsa or mutt; so I beg to pardon my heretic assumptions. :-)
But as it seems that mutt somehow is not as easily fooled as balsa,
wouldn't it be possible to adapt that algorithm?
Best regards,
Andresa
