I still don't understand what's going on though. I even suspect that it's
not the default $in_reply_to from mutt-1.2.5 that confuses mutt-1.4.
I found that my local mbox files contain lots of headers of the form
In-reply-to: <"from userxyz"@host>
but when I look at an online mailing list archive, the reported header is
totally different! It has the default $in_reply_to format (first the
message-id, and then a lot of other text)
Could it be that sendmail or fetchmail are doing this to me?
