I have posted over and over that this issue is not just Outlook or MS related. I have the same issue with headers and footers regardless of what email client is used. I have 2.1.2 on a freebsd 4.7 machine with sendmail. My mac users send to the list, Eudora users, outlook and all I have tried. Same problem.
I am not saying its not more prevalent in outlook. But it is happening with other programs. And I know everyone will be quick to say, don't use sendmail, or you must have installed it wrong. I have posted the problem here before and no one has responded with anything close to a resolution. I was told by someone that it was being address in the next version. So I am waiting. There doesn't seem to be nothing else I can do. As far as the statement to use a MUA that doesn't suck. You need to crawl out of the 18th century. MS has had the mail client world tied up for a long time, and gains more everyday. I personally don't like Outlook in a pop3 environment. But in an exchange environment protected by a proper firewall there is only a few that compare for collaboration and global use. But then again, I come from an environment that has servers all over the world synchronizing the GAL and shared objects every night. Not too many other options for global address books. There are some. But not many.

Using an MUA which doesn't suck.... I think some versions of Outlook do generate the proper headers, but I imagine it's based on version #, as opposed to being a configurable setting. The Mac version (which is much better behaved in general) does. > Is there a setting in the Defaults.py or other place to use "Subject" > instead of "In-Reply-To" or "References"? I'm pretty sure there isn't. A lot of MUAs can do this; it probably wouldn't be a bad idea, but could cause unexpected problems (like when people send messages to the list with generic subject lines). -- "Since when is skepticism un-American?
