Hi,

MailBoxer threads messages by diffs on subjects. Please don't start arguing
on it, in real world threading this way works much better than threading on
message-id, references etc.

Your test-subjects are very "similar" so they are recognized as "same"
threads. Please use some "real" case subjects-lines and see, that MailBoxer
will thread much more better.

Have a look at:

http://www.dzug.org/mailinglisten/zope-org-zope/archive/2004/2004-03

to see recent threads of zope at zope.org threaded "correctly".

Cheers, Maik
