Debian mail list archive has a rare mhonarc configuration that adds

these mailto: links contain proper In-Reply-To value

Even groups.google.com is unable to render proper discussion tree, its
representation is a list.
Mail user agents may intentionally suppress threads based on heuristics
to avoid combining unrelated discussions having subjects like "question"
or "problem".
thanking all for the observations + information. I have had a look in
settings of Gmail, my "mua", and cannot find an obvious (any!) place
where headers could be set (and haven't the knowledge, anyhow). so, I
won't try and start any more threads for now (for which sorry) and
hope that someone can/will supply Gmail specific instructions "how
to"; to that end please write an email with 'mail headers' in the
subject, thank you.
Sorry, I rarely use gmail web UI, in my case "mailto:" links are handled
by thunderbird. If the browser app is the only mail user agent available
on your chromebook and it can not handle In-Reply-To link parameter then
it is sour. Since you mentioned groups.google.com, does it set proper
headers when reply to particular message is sent using this service?
However it looks like a kind vendor lock to their own mail list archive
due to unsatisfactory support of primary external archives.
