Probably, 2nd and 3rd in the form of Original-References on
GMaNe, <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.ietf.rfc822:11263:raw>

Yes, that's the last msg-id in the 1st References: header.

If I'd really want to mix the ideas of See-Also (= literal
sense of references) and References, then I'd probably identify
one thread as _the_ thread, copy its References adding a msg-id
as explained in 2822, and then I'd add the Message-IDs of any
further "see also" references.  Maybe with a limit of at most
14 additional references, because that still allows 3+3 msg-ids
for _the_ thread.  OTOH that sounds like an idea for a time
travel to 1995, too little and too late today. ;-)  Bye, Frank
