Subject: GMail injects fake Message-IDs
Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2011 00:53:51 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2tyapqx7k.fsf@boostpro.com> (raw)
In attempting to figure out why `gnus-summary-refer-parent-article' was
so often failing to find the root article of my mail threads, I looked
carefully and saw that GMail generates some kind of fake message-ID. These
headers appeared in the 2nd message of a thread:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
In-Reply-To: <CAEOvpkmO5SGPdbqUrUgyi0LSPZyCQU2JfJpwUDq0EEuZn6B8OQ@mail.gmail.com>
References: <m2d3ho45ip.fsf@pluto.luannocracy.com>
<CAEOvpkmO5SGPdbqUrUgyi0LSPZyCQU2JfJpwUDq0EEuZn6B8OQ@mail.gmail.com>
Message-ID: <CAEOvpknPA15TgaGXTSb-pHK7amvX8Jr9WrjFZ=bv8upAxdBBWA@mail.gmail.com>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The first message of the thread was
<m2d3ho45ip.fsf@pluto.luannocracy.com>. As far as the thread
participants are concerned,
<CAEOvpkmO5SGPdbqUrUgyi0LSPZyCQU2JfJpwUDq0EEuZn6B8OQ@mail.gmail.com>
never existed. Is there something Gnus can do to work around this oddity?
TIA,
