            Bug ID: 401997
           Summary: Allow to thread messages by references
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 5.9.2
          Platform: Debian testing
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: message list
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: charlemagnelasse at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

Many systems to track bugs (like redmine, jira or as it looks also bugzilla)
don't reference the last message generated for the ticket nor an actual message
in the ticket. But they keep a  stable References: field

But kmail is not showing them as thread when setting View -> Message List ->
Aggregation to "Current Activity, Threaded".

This makes it extremely hard to follow multiple ticket activities in kmail2

Btw. the version number was just guessed. I have no idea what version number
kmail2 from 4:18.08.1-1 in Debian has.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. receive multiple messages from redmine 3/jira (from different tickets but at
least two from the same ticket)
2. move them all to a single folder
3. switch folder to "Current Activity, Threaded"

OBSERVED RESULT

The view is still not threaded but flat and ordered by data and not by the
ticket.


EXPECTED RESULT

A thread is created based on the references/In-Reply-To information.
