Me, too. I seriously doubt it can be down "flawlessly", however.
There's no way for an email program to know exactly who is following
up on you, except through the In-Reply-To and Reference fields in
the headers, which you've already done. My method works only under
certain condition (uniqueness of name in a given mailing list) of
which the existence is impossible for the program to determine.
Consequently, in a mailing list where your name isn't quite unique,
and there are lots of people using web-based email, I can think of
no way for a email program to know who is following up on you.
