Don't you hate it when you get behind on a list and you're reading chronologically in threaded mode and you come to a thread and think no one has replied but in fact they've just changed the header and now it's buried under something totally different later on in the big old message list somewhere?
I long since configured my newsreader to display these lists ordered by date, rather than by thread. People constantly reply out of the thread with a mail client that doesn't support references, and people constantly start new topics by clicking "reply" and changing the subject. The threading unfortunately does not give much information, it's not worth using.
