Zombie,

Using your mail client's "Reply" command and then editing the Subject 
to something completely different does not create a new topic thread. 
Igor showed you the "References:" and "In-Reply-To:" headers that 
better mail clients use to organize threads according to their actual 
lineage. This is the preferred means for a mail (or news) client to 
define a topic thread because subject headers, which often fragment, 
are truncated and generally diverge for various reasons, are not useful 
for inferring topic thread membership.

If, like me, you use Eudora, then you may be unaware of these threading 
links in mail headers, thinking it's only a news thing, perhaps.
