This is a serious shortcoming in Mailman. I am surprised that such a basic human communication issue has not been properly addressed.

See here what kind of effect that can have. From the message below, a long discussion follows on this subject:

I would like to specifically mention the following page, which accurate describes the problem:

All that would not be necessary if Mailman were smart enough. It already knows how to group e-mails by subject. It could make sure the participants 
are all kept in the loop.
