no, it is the correct behaviour.
The subject is not a good way to determine, that a mail belong in a thread or
not. RE, Re [RE], {AW}. is only one thing that changes in the subject.
Looking at the header is 'the standard', a mailer not doing it is inherently
broken.
And taking over threads, because you are too lazy to click on 'new mail' is
even more broken.
