mutt's threading has been upgraded recentlyish and contains some rather
cool features. IMO, a really good way to run a mailing list archive is
to have a person that is responsible for breaking and linking threads,
and this edited inbox is used for archive generation.

Mutt can break/link threads (e.g. # breaks a thread) which allows
workarounds for MS in-reply-to: brokenness, and people with threaded
clients starting new threads by replying to old ones (grrr).
