It's not the Subject: header that matters for thread construction.(*)
It's the In-Reply-To: header, which contains the Message-ID:s of your
parent message(s).

A sufficiently advanced email client (MUA) takes all the messages,
with all of their unique Message-ID:s, and all of their In-Reply-To:
headers, and constructs a tree in memory, with all of the parent/child
relationships laid out explicitly.  Then it presents this tree
structure to you, however it was programmed to do.

(*) Unless you're using Microsoft Outlook or other similar crap.
