Evo is my preferred client and threading works as it's supposed to (i.e. using the In-Reply-To header).

This is mainly for compatibility with Outlook, which is broken in this regard. poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
