There's a reason that mail clients provide two distinct features for
“new mail” and “reply to”. A new mail creates a new thread and a
reply to creates an “In-Reply-To:” header.

You sent a message containing:

  In-Reply-To: <9CBFD630-FEFD-4F75-9E3C-D6BA53B27FF5@web.de>

And that's exactly how email clients should display the message, as
a reply to the message with the given Message-ID. It's totally valid
to change the “Subject” line keeping the thread. An email client has
no built-in crystal ball which could prophesy your intentions.

I would consider filing a bug report.
