The original mail won't be in your Inbox to get "confused" with any
replies to it. The originals will be in the Sent Items folder (unless
you use a rule to put outbound mails in some other folder).
If your original mails are showing up in your Inbox then *you* must be
sending yourself a copy through your mail server rather than just
using the copy that got put in the Sent Items folder. Well, you can
still check for "Re:" in the Subject header. Just think in reverse.
You want all e-mails without "Re:" moved to some other folder but
leave e-mail with "Re:" in your Inbox. So create a rule that moves
all e-mails to the other folder EXCEPT those with "Re:" in the
Subject.
