[Jerome sent me the two messages]

Jerome, the two messages you sent me are not threaded by subject, they are 
threaded because the second has an In-Reply-To header which points to the 
first. That's probably the result of reused Message-Id headers, which should 
not happen. Whatever generated those mails is to blame, I'm afraid, KMail 
threaded them exactly as the relationship in the headers requires, one as a 
reply to the other.

Cheerio,

Till
