I don't know how it works exactly but it looks to me that Mutt first
checks for In-Reply-To: header or something similar. If it is not
there, then it does some magick with Subject header to organize messages
into threads. Probably some trick with "Re: " matching or so.
Unless of course there are more then 1 thread with the same subject,
things look nice. If there are few threads, then Outlook messages get
collected in single thread. :) But it's still better then having them
all over the place.
