All modern email software -- say, since 1987 or so -- uses
Message-ID headers and References headers to track threads, not
Subject lines.

For example:

References: <[🔎] Z4UiQnQqvtWHX5pZ@q957> <[🔎] Z4UoEvn0KwoA99bh@tuxteam.de>
        <[🔎] 3jrf5l-55uu.ln1@q957.zbmc.eu> <[🔎] 20250113113710.55158b0a@hawk.localdomain>
        <[🔎] v97g5l-h43v.ln1@q957.zbmc.eu> <[🔎] 20250113201431.GF27750@wooledge.org>
        <[🔎] pmeg5l-4n6v.ln1@q957.zbmc.eu> <[🔎] 20250113161313.62a7697b@hawk.localdomain>
        <[🔎] CAH8yC8kAVpKExODdRhSMb9CBPMeufPk7XQgwWTfyT+GB3VUuSw@mail.gmail.com>

is in the message I am currently replying to. Each of those is a
Message-ID which should be universally unique, and can be used
by a message reading program to deduce where this message should
be displayed in a thread.
