;;; Commentary:

;; The threading portion of this files tries to implement the
;; algorithm described at:
;;   https://www.jwz.org/doc/threading.html
;; It also begins to implement the threading section of the IMAP -
;; SORT and THREAD Extensions RFC at:
;;   https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5256
;; The implementation lacks the reference and subject canonicalization
;; of the RFC.

;; In the presentation buffer, children messages are shown indented
;; with either [ ] or < > around them. Square brackets ([ ]) denote
;; that the algorithm can point out some headers which when taken
;; together implies that the unindented message is an ancestor of the
;; indented message. If no such proof exists then angles (< >) are
;; used.

;; If threading is slow on your machine, compile this file. Of all the
;; files in MH-E, this one really benefits from compilation.

;; Some issues and problems are as follows:

;;  (1) Scan truncates the fields at length 512. So longer
;;      references: headers get mutilated. The same kind of MH
;;      format string works when composing messages. Is there a way
;;      to avoid this? My scan command is as follows:
;;        scan +folder -width 10000 \
;;             -format "%(msg)\n%{message-id}\n%{references}\n%{subject}\n"
;;      I would really appreciate it if someone would help me with this.

;;  (2) Implement heuristics to recognize message identifiers in
;;      In-Reply-To: header. Right now it just assumes that the last
;;      text between angles (< and >) is the message identifier.
;;      There is the chance that this will incorrectly use an email
;;      address like a message identifier.

;;  (3) Error checking of found message identifiers should be done.

;;  (4) Since this breaks the assumption that message indices
;;      increase as one goes down the buffer, the binary search
;;      based mh-goto-msg doesn't work. I have a simpler replacement
;;      which may be less efficient.

;;  (5) Better canonicalizing for message identifier and subject
;;      strings.
