Ummm, I think something is odd with you wording.

"could you put the new messages to be threaded under the most recent message with a matching subject?"

Are you saying you have other messages with the subject "foo" or RE: 
foo that are not sorted under the month old foo?

It seems like you ask for one thing, bur expect another.

If you have an original Message "Subject:  Foo" sent Jan 1.  And on
March 20, a message "Subject:  RE: Foo" comes in I would expect it to be
under the Jan 1 message.

Then if a message comes in March 23 with "Subject:  RE: Foo" I expect
that to be under (but necessarily  a child of) the March 20 note, which
is under (and a child of) the Jan 1 note.

So perhaps you problem is that You have a new not March 15 with
"Subject:  Foo" and you want evo to treat that note as  the parent?
