The point is that your responses don't have the appropriate References: 
header, so they don't get threaded with other messages on the same topic.
It appears as if you are using a mail agent rather than a news agent, 
since References: is a news header (and your other headers say you're 
using MS Outlook).

It affects other things than threading, too -- e.g. I use References: to 
pick out responses to my own messages, and yours don't get caught.
