I see the incorrect threading of the above message in the index
<http://twistedmatrix.com/pipermail/twisted-python/2009-June>. I also
see other threading anomalies in the same index.
I downloaded the twisted-python.mbox/twisted-python.mbox file from
twistedmatrix.com and built the May and June archive from it in a test
2.1.9 Mailman. For example at the end of
<http://twistedmatrix.com/pipermail/twisted-python/2009-June> I see

You can see in the twistedmatrix.com index two cases where the second
post in a thread is indented to level 3 instead of level 1 which is
clearly wrong. You can also see that in the archive I built, your
thread starts at level 0 as it should.
Also note that this apparently has nothing to do with Outlook.. There
is a similarly indented post in early June -
[Twisted-Python] Application Design help - Concurrent but not Protocols
based. Senthil Kumaran
and the posting MUA in that case was Mutt.
Also see
<http://twistedmatrix.com/pipermail/glyph-discuss/2009-May/thread.html>
where the only two posts (spam) are both indented to level 1.
Does this occur only on twistedmatrix.com lists? There is clearly
something wrong with the archiving process on that site, but I can't
duplicate it in a stock 2.1.9 environment.
