One of our users[has posted feedback](http://elixirforum.com/t/mailing-list-messages-are-not-threaded/640/1) that emails are not being correctly threaded and believes this is because `In-Reply-To` is not correctly specified.

Currently Discourse will do this:

```plaintext
<topic/627@elixirforum.com>

```

But should it be something like:

```plaintext
<topic/627/4020@elixirforum.com>

```

(Which is what I think Github does)

Any thoughts on this please?
