If you never noticed it, I'd guess that you use gmail's web interface rather
than a local client, as gmail will show your sent messages in the threading
that it does. If you're using a local client, that obviously doesn't happen,
since sent messages don't normally get put in your inbox. So, as someone who
uses a local mail client pretty much exclusively, what gmail was doing was
really annoying, particularly since it was constantly breaking up threads that
I replied in. But either you have a very different workflow (like using the web
interface), or your e-mail client is much smarter than mine, or you just
didn't notice for some reason.

But if gmail works for you, then great. This issue was a deal breaker for me.
It took it from gmail being annoying in some of its quirks and how badly it
interacted with local clients to being unacceptably broken.

Your post here also broke the thread. Your post appears in reply to the initial post of the thread, rather than the post you actually replied to.
