: There's a fair bit of info on the internet about this, apparently
: gmail groups by subject only and JIRA includes varying content in an
: issue's subject, depending on the action (comment, update, etc.). Did
: anybody find a solution to thread ALL of an issue's messages into a
: single thread (other than hacking through a proxy account and
: rewriting message subjects? :)

If i remember correctly from the last time i investigated this, Gmail's 
behavior in dealing with "threads" (why they choose to rename them 
"conversations" is another rant) when you connect via *IMAP* is actually a 
weird hybrid of what they say they do (only treat it as a thread if the 
subject is the same) and what they should do (respect the In-Reply-To and 
References headers)

I'm fairly certain that if a message contains both In-Reply-To and 
References headers, gmail's IMAP server will respond to "sort thread" 
commands by putting both messages in the same "thread", but 
inspite of the RFCs saying that a message with an In-Reply-To header 
but no References header should be treated as if it has a References 
identifying the same message, gmail treats this situation differnetly, and 
does not conside the two messages part of hte same thread.

(Jira emails use In-Reply-To, but not Refrences headers)

if you use the gmail web ui however, you're screwed six ways from sunday, 
and messages with differnet subjects are never considered the same thread.
