Re: Is subject-based threading actually done in conjunction with explicit threading?

Earl, you said :

$NUMFOLUP$ is based on *explicit* follow-ups. From the docs.
Doc is real clear. I got confused because of achives I read which put me under
the impression you found a get around. My mistake !

I am unclear on what you are stating.  Provide a snippet of an example
in index
Let me put it in other word: sometimes MHonArc misses the subject-based
threading and I can't find the reason why. A couple of examples follow but I
must confess my analysis does not bring the solution: For some failing thread
configurations I have other situation where they work.

Three failing examples :
I- Herebelow, MHonArc missed that 3 is a reply to 1
    1- Chaîne d'Info (Active Channel), Christian de la Salle - 24/07/98
    2- Mise en place d'archives, Christian de la Salle - 07/08/98
    3- Re : Chaîne d'Info (Active Channel), Christian de la Salle - 23/08/98
Notes: Both have the same author but I don't believe it's taken into account
by MHonArc (it worked in other occurences). They feature special characters
(accents) and when I look at the mbx file they are not encoded :
    Subject: Chaîne d'Info (Active Channel)
    Subject: Re : Chaîne d'Info (Active Channel)

II- Herebelow, MHonArc missed that 4 is a reply to 2
    1- Mailing lists, Christian de la Salle - 23/06/98
    2- Securité / Stats, Christian de la Salle - 02/07/98
    3- Majordomo : archives, Christian de la Salle - 23/07/98
    4- Re: Securité / Stats, Christian de la Salle - 23/07/98
    5- Redirect Problem and Majordomo Archiving Question, Christian de la
Salle - 28/07/98
Notes / Same author too. They feature special characters (accents) and when I
look at the mbx file they are both encoded the same way
    Subject: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Tr:_Securit=E9_/_Stats?=
    Subject: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Securit=E9_/_Stats?=
and Tr: is coded as a subject Reply Expression which works OK in other
messages:
<SUBJECTREPLYRXP>
^\s*(tr|re|sv|fwd|fw)[\[\]\d]*[:>-]+\s*
</SUBJECTREPLYRXP>
