One of the reasons that I think the threading is done serverside is this excerpt from the imapd config file ############### From impad ###################### Set this option if you want to disable all the extra load from # server-side threading and sorting. Not advertising those capabilities # will simply result in the clients reading the entire folder, and sorting # it on the client side. That will still put some load on the server. # advertising these capabilities, but rejecting the commands, will stop this # silliness. # IMAP_DISABLETHREADSORT=0 ################################################ Also, I used to use pop3 on the same account with same client(ximian evolution) and the threading seemed to be different.
