Hullo List,

Since I've joined this list, I'm seeing an incorrect threading behavior
that I've never before seen. Specifically, take as an example this
screenshot:

The example messages marked with the red arrows are all responses to the
message just above them, but aren't displayed as children in the node
view (i.e they should be indented one level but aren't). Why is that?

I've confirmed the threading display with multiple clients on my end.
It's just this list. What's weird is that in my experience, mail
clients either properly thread, or they don't. There's no in-between
like here. Here, the messages *are* threaded, but are attached to the
grandparent, not to their parent.

Does anyone know what's up?

Thanks,

Kevin
