JIRA emails I receive are not threaded in message list. I tried all three
methods: Perfect, Perfect and Reference, Perfect, Reference and Subject.

I think the reason is that these messages have both In-Reply-To and References
headers filled, but there is never a parent with such ID. So they are in the
same thread, but there is never a thread parent. JIRA developers say that it is
set so, because you can start receiving mail during issue workflow, not from
the begining, so they mark threads correctly with the same ID, but there is
never parent.

I suspect that for some reason it never gets to Thread by Subject pass, so it
would be matched perfectly. Subject is complicated as well.

Below are two samples of messages in same thread, but not threaded in KMail2.
