Why? A mail has 'References:' headers, which give the Message-ID of the
message to which you're replying. Most mail programs can then display a
'threaded' view where it's trivial to find the 'parent' message. Some
mailers even show the References: header with hyperlinks so you can just
click and be taken there.

That's the theory according to RFC2822, anyway. Actually, Lorenzo's mail
program is broken and didn't include the References: header as it should
have done. That's why it was rejected by the mailing list.
