[plug] OT: In-Reply-To and Hotmail

Something has just occurred to me. Something which I have been blaming
on Mr Tomato here for weeks.
Hotmail doesn't seem to implement In-Reply-To: as a header, meaning that
it is hard to correctly thread messages which come from Hotmail clients.

Although it isn't Mr Tomato's fault that his mail doesn't allow for
correct threading. Perhaps he should look at getting a better mail
client.

Mutt works well. Has fantastic threading and colouring capabilities.
Evolution is also nice (and graphical). Plus, if he wants to use
hotmail, he can use the gotmail script to download his mail into an mbox
for him.
