I don't doubt that messages which originated with evolution could have
headers arbitrarily removed by broken or misconfigured MTAs. I also
don't doubt that evolution could misinterpret existing headers when
displaying threads. I simply have seen no irrefutable proof that
evolution breaks threading via replies of its own accord.
