Group by Conversation

Hello,

I normally use View/Group Messages by Conversation for my emails. I have had
no problems before.

A friend sent me an email. I used the Reply button to reply. Then I moved
both the message and my reply to a folder. Their Subjects are 'Hello' and
'Re: Hello'. I expected them to appear together as a thread with a + before
the original message. But my reply was missing.

If I turn off the 'View/Group Messages by Conversation ' my reply appears.

What have I done wrong ?. All my other messages & threads are there OK.

Thanks

KK

Windows Mail actually groups conversations by Subject line.
Most of the time it ignores the leading "Re:", but sometimes it
fails; for example, if there is no space delimiter between the "Re:"
and the rest of the subject line, or when there are multiple Re:'s.
