--- Comment #11 from Jan <medhefgo at web.de> ---
I figured out why this is happening: KMail only considers prefixed E-Mails for
subject based threading. If it doesn't start with a "Re:" for example, it's not
a thread. Bugzilla doesn't do that. So in the absence of that, it only uses
In-Reply-To/Reference headers. And that doesn't work if the thread starter is
missing, which imho is the wrong way to handle that.

And even if it is prefixed, it will not consider messages with a time
difference of 120 seconds. So if you managed to have a github conversation that
is faster than that, it's not a thread either. This one in particular I really
don't understand.
