Message-ID: <E1QbavO-0007JS-6s@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <iuafsr$apc$1@dough.gmane.org> (message from Uday S Reddy on Mon, 27 Jun 2011 18:47:15 +0100)
If there are two copies of the same message in the mail folder with
different Message-ID's, then some responses would get threaded under one
copy and the others under the other copy, causing confusion.
If these two messages are in the same thread to start with -- for
instance, if they are replies to the same message -- won't the
responses to them also be part of that thread?
However, there is also the case where the two messages are not replies.
In that case, there is nothing to tie them together. That is not good.
