Don't know 'bout that. But I have things set up to view threads expanded which
works nice. However, I do dislike Gravity because I cannot sort by thread as a
secondary sort parameter. If I want to sort by subject and also follow the
thread I must select one message and then sort by thread--it is not done by
default.

Yup, that is correct. Below is a sample header from one of Ben's messages I
pulled from Gravity. Don't know if it provides any new info. Previous message
Reference header definitely missing.
