Nope.  That will definitely not work.  Threading is controlled by 
information in the message header that is not preserved in the messages 
as *displayed* in either the pipermail web archives or the gossamer 
archives (though as pointed out elsewhere, it is preserved if you 
download an entire month's archive as an mbox-format file and import it 
into your mail client).

Some mail clients can try to be a little smarter and thread based on the 
subject line as well as the message headers.  KMail has the ability to 
do this, but it doesn't work 100% of the time.
