Mail clients with tree threads (e.g. kmail from KDE) use references found in mail headers and this makes your “new” message be buried inside another thread. AFAIK this is also the case for the web view of the mailing list archive.

I had no idea there were thread-view email clients; it sounds like a 
good idea.  I use the
detestable, dozy Thunderbird.  Anyway, it looks like it's better hygiene 
to just start from
scratch which I will certainly do from now on.  Thanks Axel for pointing 
it out.  My questions
are bad enough without that added irritation.
