Absolutely. A real pain.

In general it's because of crap MUAs ("mail programs") like Outhouse.
Both of Paul Johnson's posts immediately before your post had full IRT
and Ref headers as well as MIDs. If you would care to post the MID of an
offending message I would be happy to check my copy. I note, though,
that every single one of the posts in this god-forsaken thread has been
properly threaded (I, too, allow "threading by guesswork" but can see
when that has happenned).
