Perhaps I should have used a different word from "thread": "subject". In my mail
client, at least, sorting by subject line is the closest thing I have to sorting
by thread.

You called it a "mini mailing-list". I mistakenly called it a "thread" this
once. But "subject" is the word I've been using over and over. Please don't
change the subject (in both senses): that's what I've been asking. At a minimum,
please don't change the beginning of the subject line.

See above - lose it.
