All,

I notice that since a few days there seems to be a quite high number
of torn threads, i.e. threads which are not presented as a single
thread in GMail reader. It seems that messages in between are missing
which leads to a new thread. Interestingly GMail also does not
present the “Re:” at the beginning of the subject but I assume this is
a GMail feature. Does anybody have an idea what’s going on?

Kind regards

robert

experience the same?

I am not in a position to comment on GMail issues, but I can tell you
that I am not seeing any such problems in Mutt. Even if I manually
delete emails from the middle of a thread, the thread remains connected.
I think the issue is related to GMail’s handling of threading itself.

OK, I got one clue: these threads all landed partially in GMail spam.

I guess you are right. My main error was not to look into Spam before
posting. But ruby-talk messages landed in Spam so rarely in the past
that I did not even think of that option. :slight_smile:
