Apparently Yahoo uses some custom header to keep track of threads. It is stupid
in my opinion, as it forces one to use an email client is specific, possibly
uncomfortable ways. I've yet to come across an email client that actually
supports this explicitly, so the header is just blindly being copied to every
reply you make, even if you delete all of the content/subject.

I, for one, just may start stripping out said header.
