I just upgraded from mutt 0.89 (yes, a little bit dusty :-) ) to 1.3.28
and found a threading bug:
I have a colleague who is using zmail, which generates both:
'In-Reply-To' and 'References' header. Mutt sorts mails from this MUA in a
wrong way, I see threads of mails which has nothing to do with each other.
A typical zmail header (cutout) looks like this:
In-Reply-To: Ulli Horlacher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
"Re: ssh und zlib" (Mar 12, 13:56)
References: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
X-Mailer: Z-Mail (5.0.0 30July97)
This looks weired, but is correct for RFC822.
I assume mutt (mis)interprets the mail-address in the In-Reply-To header as a
MID.
I could set up a procmail rule like:
:0 f
* ^References: <
* ^In-Reply-To: [^<]
| formail -R In-Reply-To X-In-Reply-To
But this does not help me with the zillions of old mails I have in my LOT
of mailbox files. I would have to convert them manually.
Can I convince mutt to ignore the In-Reply-To header if there is a
References header?
mutt 0.89 does not show this threading bug.
