Using subject (and presumably date and possibly any "re" prefix) will 
always break.

I believe the proper way is to use the message-id and in-reply-to

Thunderbird does this for me - except on emails from this list, which 
leads me to suspect the LO list processor is tinkering with something it 
shouldn't. Irritating.
