E.g. with (setq gnus-summary-line-format "%U%R $%-4i%I %2t: %(%[%4L: %-20,20n%]%) %s\n") then I see O $0 4: [3638: XXX ] Thread subject O $0 2: [ 52: YYY ] O $0 1: [ 22: ZZZZ ] O $0 1: [ 123: QQQ ] Changed subject As far as the wishlist is concerned: ignoring subject is intelligent enough to recognise replies (i.e. subject changes from "Subject" to "Re: Subject" are ignored when splitting threads) but not forwards (i.e. subject changes from "Subject" to "Fw: Subject" or "Fwd: Subject"_will_ split the thread). In the latter case i would prefer to keep these articles in a single thread.
