All of these good suggestions are resumed and printed for further 
reference in these two links:

http://www.debian.org/MailingLists/index.en.html#codeofconduct
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianMailingLists

Sadly, some modern MUA (mostly webmails or those from smartphone devices) 
simply overwrite the good mailing lists guidance and delete the required 
e-mail headers so messages are left unthreaded. 

Solution? Not quite easy, you have to remove the users... err, I mean, to 
use a standard-compliant MUA O:-)
