Describe the bug
Messages may contain references to other messages but really belong to a separate thread. One way this can happen is if the sender replies to a thread but changes the subject line. This is probably one of many.

Suggested Fix
Threads that differ in subject line by some specified amount should be treated as separate threads,
even if they share IDs in their references.

This could be used to check for string sameness: https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.similar-text.php
