            Bug ID: 414578
           Summary: Kmail groups unrelated messages into threads if
                    subject line is the same.
           Product: kontact
           Version: 5.11.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: mail
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: mullein at adelie.io
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Receive an email with a specific subject line.
2. Accidentally send an email to someone with same subject line as in step #1
3. Receive a reply from the original recipient from step #2

OBSERVED RESULT

Kmail will associate the reply from step 2/3 with the unrelated email received
in step 1, if the subject lines are identical.  This causes potential grouping
of unrelated emails.  


EXPECTED RESULT

No association between emails from step 1 and steps 2 and 3.
