Hi, it looks like Thunderbird thread view has some problems about showing sourceforge's discussion messages, all the messages with the different titles are shown in a single thread, see the screen shot below in the inbox:
While I see in Gmail's web view, those email messages are in two threads, see image below:
The even bad thing is if I use the "conversation" add-on for the Thunderbird, a single conversation thread view contains many old messages which are already achieved.
So, how to solve this problem, is there any options I can tweak under Thunderbird about thread view? Thanks.

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Posting_a_scr ... _the_forum might help. I can't see the images.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Stop_threading_by_subject for the different ways of specifying whether a message is part of a thread. Perhaps you need to tweak those settings.

Let me tweak those settings, but generally those setting(I believe the default setting) works OK, expect the email messages from Sourceforge discussions.See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Stop_threading_by_subject for the different ways of specifying whether a message is part of a thread.

Re: Thread view issue of sourceforge discussion messages
It looks like Sourceforge's discussion messages are all have the same References(In-Reply-To) ID string, so as thunderbird use this ID to sort the emails, thus the emails are in the same thread, this is mostly an issue from Sourceforge.
