Evo 1.0.x was threading by subject, Evo 1.2.x determines from other
header entries -- and works better IMHO.

If you want Evo 1.2.x to thread by subject, here is a hint from Jeffrey
Stedfast <fejj ximian com>:

--- snip ---
I think what you are looking for is "thread based on subject" which we
used to have in 1.0.x (then everyone complained, so we removed it - and
now everyone is complaining that we *don't* thread by subject anymore -
*sigh*, the pain never stops ;-)

anyways, you can manually re-enable this hidden feature by editing
~/evolution/config.xmldb and setting the thread_subject value to "1"
instead of "0".
