mutt ignores certain message-ID's?
Hello,
In most of my folders I use the following config:
set strict_threads = yes
set sort = threads
set sort_aux = last-date-received
I save outgoing replies in the same folder as the incoming message so a
discussion should show as a proper thread (and most do). However, I recently
noticed a number of messages weren't properly threaded. Replies from person B
to mails from me would show up as a thread, but replies from myself to person
B would start a new thread every time.
If I unset strict_threads the mails do show up as one thread, but my mails are
shown as -*>.
If I manually thread all the messages together using the & key it will show
the thread correctly, but if I change to another folder and back the threads
will be broken again.
All the messages have Message-ID's and References or In-Reply-To headers which
all seem to be correct. However, the Message-ID's from person B do look a bit
odd:
Message-ID: <000001c88053$c54232f0$4fc698d0$@helder@example.com>
I've replaced the real domain name with example.com to protect my client's
identity, but the rest of the Message-ID is from the real mail.
Can it be that Mutt doesn't recognise that Message-ID as a real one and
ignores it for threading purposes? If so, is there anything I can do (except
editing the messages by hand ofcourse) to make Mutt thread them properly
again?
For completeness, I'm using Mutt 1.5.17+20080114 (2008-01-14) (a Debian
version).
