[cfe-dev] Phabricator e-mails not threading nicely in Apple Mail

So, as fallout from that bug, it's basically that Phab currently has 2
modes for threading topics: Either it always uses Re: or never.

They are going to fix this. Until then, what's our preferred solution?

Always Re: will be slightly confusing when the first review request
already has the "Re:" prefix
Never Re: breaks Apple Mail

Thoughts?

So for "[PATCH] Add script to update AST matcher reference", I see your e-mails in one group and Dmitri's in another. I'm going to backpedal on what I said previously because I /do/ see "In-reply-to" and "References" fields in both e-mails now (not sure how I missed that, or maybe it's new). So now I'm confused.

However, the e-mails that go to cfe-commits don't seem to get coalesced by Apple Mail's "Organize by Conversation" feature, even though they have the same subject. Can you/someone add a "References" header that just refers to the initial patch message? I think that would probably do it for us.
