Could someone please have a look at an issue I'm having in resubmitting a 
patch, trying to get the resubmission email to appear as a reply on an existing 
thread? In order to conform to submission guidelines in ffmpeg-devel, I'm using 
git format-patch and git send-email, using the --in-reply-to option, but it's 
not giving the expected results.

I had started a thread in this mailing list for a patch I've been working on. I 
had gotten some comments to my initial submission, worked on addressing them, 
and last night I submitted it again. I wanted the resubmission to appear as a 
reply on the earlier thread, to preserve that conversation. After configuring 
git to use the same email account that I had used for the earlier submissions 
and comments, I used the following git command:

     git send-email --to=ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org 
--in-reply-to="e4d3f14f-ac69-9424-804e-ee5025059...@passwd.hu" <patch-file-name>

I got the message ID from the following line in the message I wanted to reply 
to:
Message-ID: <e4d3f14f-ac69-9424-804e-ee5025059...@passwd.hu>

But when I submitted the patch, it showed up in the list as a reply on a 
completely different, unrelated thread.

They at least show up in my client as replies alright.
