Re: [Emacs-diffs] /srv/bzr/emacs/trunk r104691: Don't reuse previous Mes

Subject: Re: [Emacs-diffs] /srv/bzr/emacs/trunk r104691: Don't reuse previous Message-id when resending.

    If there are two copies of the same message in the mail folder with 
    different Message-ID's, then some responses would get threaded under one 
    copy and the others under the other copy, causing confusion.

If these two messages are in the same thread to start with -- for
instance, if they are replies to the same message -- won't the
responses to them also be part of that thread?

However, there is also the case where the two messages are not replies.
In that case, there is nothing to tie them together.  That is not good.
