[Mailman-Users] Problems with Threading and Outlook as an MUA

On code inspection of pipermail, it appears as though it is intended to 
fall back to fallback to subject threading if there are no In-Reply-To: 
or References: headers.  However it is broken.  I've patched a solution
that appears to work for me, and posted a query on this to the developers
list.

This is in the new FAQ:

Basically, the problem isn't with Outlook, it's just a coincidence that
your Outlook users happen to post via mis-configured mail-servers.
