Hm, not sending an In-Reply-To header at all doesn't help - you've just 
started *another* new thread.
Put In-Reply-To in the message header where it belongs. Then - and only 
then - it will enable the mail clients of all the subscribers of this 
list to automatically know to which posting you replied to.

OK, understood. But does the limitation *you* have to live with justify 
that you break threads for *all other* members of the list?

Maybe you could resume doing what you did 'till Oct 2018, when you did 
put the In-Reply-To header where it belongs:
<https://lists.debian.org/msgid-search/alpine.DEB.2.20.1810192036590.7736@debian>

 > Maybe you could spam/filter out my address permanently?

I could. But that would only help if no one ever replied to one of your 
replies. With every single one of you replies you create a new thread - 
regardless if I see it's root or filter it - since you've detached the 
(sub-)thread from it's origin.
