   Do you need more explanations regarding this?
   
   > What is In-Reply-To? 
   
   In reply to is a field holding the Mime message-Id of the message this mail 
is a rely of. This is a strong indicator that they are in the same thread... 
You can find explanations here: 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4021#section-2.1.9.
   
   > What is References header field meaning?
   
   Idem references are emails being related. This could be previous replies of 
the thread for instance. 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4021#section-2.1.10
   
   This could be used for instance also by forwards that technically are not 
replies.
   
   > Why should we combine In-Reply-To and References into a object?
   
   I personnally think we can wrap that into a `List<MimeMessageId> 
relatedMimeMessageIds` field instead of two fields.
