They won't thread only in Mutt or also in TB?

I  don't  think  that  it's  it.  Generally  threading  is  done  with
Message-It,  In-Reply-To  and References fields of a mail message. You
can  set up TB to thread on Subjects, but I think it ignores "re[?]:".
If  threading  doesn't work in Mutt then I dunno, as I have never used
this  program.  (Where  can I get it from? Is it more comfortable than
Pine? Does it support POP3?). There is a bug in TB as far as threading
is  concerned: in references field there should be message-id's of all
previous messages in a thread, not just the previous one (or something
like this, I'm not sure -- I'm not an expert).

I'm  not  sure  which version of Outlook you are talking about. I have
used Outlook Express 4 and it doesn't support threading at all.

Ah,  so  it's  Mutt that doesn't do threading? Well, then I'd suspectg
the  bug  mentioned  above...  Unless  you  have  set  Mutt to sort by
subjects -- then using %singlere (as Ali proposed) may help.
