I like Mutt in Linux. I think finding a mail client that sorts by thread
has enriched my mail experience immensely. Mutt even strings them
together visually like:

msg1                -->
msg2                    ^v
replyto msg2            `->

Sheesh, don't know why I bothered to try doing that! here check out a
screen shot: www.mutt.org/screenshots/index.gif
See the pretty red arrows, neat huh?
