Yet there is a View / Threads option in Mail (I never use Usenet news),

Oups ! You are true ... i never imagine that.
Anyway i have "All" for View-Threads option.
But i cannot see threads .. i see mails after mails without relations
between 2 mails.

Ray, have you had any e-mails that should be threaded?? Here in NG, the
messages can easily be with-in threads, but I, for one, rarely get more
then one e-mail on the same thread!!

The threading relies on the References: header that each mail client should
fill with the message-IDs of the earlier messages in the thread.

Many mail clients don't do that, and then the threading does not work.

Actually, I sure hope mail threads on "In-Reply-To" as well, since that's very common. Almost all NNTP systems use References properly. When I did a mail-to-news gateway I had to rewrite the header. One of my complaints is that Seamonkey doesn't handle mail and news with a common interface, the "W" (whtch thread) command isn't in the mail, and that hurts when reading mailing lists.

Thus my mail-to-news gateway, just so I could use that feature.
