Actually, no, thunderbird doesn't break the thread of a bug due to
this issue, as it doesn't use just the subject to group emails.

(I don't use it extensively but I did test some email clients, mainly
to ease my job in the triage team in Mandriva, and now in Mageia, but
since I mostly use the bug report web page in bugzilla, using gmail
(web mail) in firefox is the best solution so far, even though the bug
mail threads get broken all the time).

Up till now, stormi and boklm (the latter wants to bring back adding
the "Resolved" to the subject of closed bugs :)), find this useful,
along with others who think it's "nice to have it". I can't ask for
the removal of this "feature" just to suit my usage.

(Now, if I'd asked dmorgan to just remove the "New:" keyword from new
bug reports email Subject when we started using bugzilla, without
asking, no one would have noticed; yeah, democracy is bad sometimes
:)).
