Mail thread behavior of HTL1.5.3 after add references header #5

Hi, thanks for restart the HTL development.

I added references header for connecting mail thread. But, mail thread connection worked only one time after adding references header by HTL 1.5.3. I checked it on Thunderbird 78.14.0 on Win 11 home,

1st mail : Message ID <111>
2nd mail : Message ID <222>
3rd mail : Message ID <333>

Add "References <111>" header to 2nd mail for 2nd mail connect to 1st mail thread.

1st mail :    Message ID <111>
   2nd mail : Message ID <222> / References <111>
3rd mail :    Message ID <333>

First time connect was success.

1st mail :    Message ID <111>
   2nd mail : Message ID <222> / References <111>
3rd mail :    Message ID <333> / References <222>

But, 3rd mail can't connect to 2nd mail thread after add "References <222>" header to 3rd mail.

Please check the current behavior of the HTL.

at the moment, I can only test in 1.5.5 on TB 91 (no changes with respect to references where this works.

I opened the edit headers, copied the messageID, closed, opened the second (third9 email and pasted it into the references.

This is for imap. May be different behaviour on pop3?

.. and for test deleted the refrence in message 3, and then it is a separate email again

Usually, I'm using POP3 server. And I changed the software version up to HTL 1.5.5 and TB 91.1.2 However, the issue situation remains the same.

But, Mail thread connection worked correctly on IMAP environment ! And deconnect is working with both(IMAP and POP3) environment.

Current workaround on POP3 environment is reboot TB and re-adding the same references header.
