There is a header line which starts with "References" and that is used
for links.  For instance, Andras' reply to you has the line

References: <1415898.YXqSXs4VDM@linux-k5wg>

which links it to your message.

If someone replies from a mailer that doesn't understand or is not set
up to handle threading information the new message breaks the thread.
 Sometimes this results in a second thread which should be part of the
first one.  Hope that explains it well enough.

In KMail1 you can see all the headers from View > Headers > All.
Other mailers have similar options.  Thunderbird uses Ctrl+U.
