References: and In-Reply-To: headers are optional and are added to a reply by the sender's MUA. Any particular MUA will add one, the other, both or neither, although RFC 2822 says Though optional, every message SHOULD have a "Message-ID:" field. Furthermore, reply messages SHOULD have "In-Reply-To:" and "References:" fields as appropriate, as described below.
