It could just let through the References: contained in the messages it
gets. Precisely because you don't let those references get through,
the recipients don't know which messages are repliers to other. It

Please WWW is not all about bug submission, reading and tracking.
Consider that other developpers use more mail agents than WWW
interfaces.
