The most efficient (and IMHO acceptable) thing would be to only check
for "\bRe:\s" in the subject. Every correctly changed subject has to
contain Re:, either at the beginning or in a "(was: Re: old subject)".
Otherwise chances are very high that a message doesn't belong to a given
thread. A message box that pops up if someone hit reply and has no
"Re:" in the subject, would be annoying enough for newbies to learn
not to misuse the reply function.  ;-).
