This is correct, as far as it goes - while the GMail presentation - both
on the web and in the mobile device clients - behaves as described,
posting from GMail doesn't actually break threads - GMail does preserve
and/or properly "update" the References: header, regardless of the mail
client program one uses (when I post from one of my GMail accounts, I
use the same well-behaved client that I do when I post through my
FreelanceTraveller.com server, and I don't see breakage). The same can
be said of the Yahoo! servers; I've posted through them in the past.
