The Message-ID of the parent (my first post) was

Message-ID: <87my3t6om2.fsf@eps142.cdf.udc.es>

and the headers from your first reply were

Message-ID: <873a5jl9iv.fsf@lifelogs.com>
References: <mailman.8857.1255595790.2239.info-gnus-english@gnu.org>

So it seems that Gnus does the threading correctly but it is not able to
figure how to retrieve the ancestors of the same message.
