Thanks. You were right, just THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT :-/

Speaking of newer versions -- can you set up nightly builds for Fedora 25, too?
I now see that the 0.7 release that I use is not exactly new.

Ok, a popup that would warn of the inadequacies of the IMAP server (shown when
a user clocks on the threading toggle) could help.

Is Trojita featured on any of the open-source market place websites where I
could set up a bounty for this. As I said, I can't contribute code, but I'd be
willing to contribute money.
