Thunderbird E-mail Threads `unweaving'
In the past, my Thunderbird program tended to keep the various threads of an original e-mail and its derivations together in a grouping in the message subject lines. More recently however, I have noticed that if I forward an e-mail to someone for an opinion, when it is returned to me, it does not end up below the original e-mail, but rather may be a few places or a few dozen positions further along the e-mail's chronological sorting display.
Is there a particular choice in the "threads" section of the view menu that would help bring the original message and any subsequent iterations back together in one grouping?
Thanks, in advance.

View (Alt-V) - Sort by - Threaded
I conducted a series of tests which involved sending the same e-mail to persons with laptops, iPhones and Android phones, then receiving replies form them.
1. With Laptops, both PC and Mac, the replies always threaded to the original message I forwarded to individuals.
2. With Android phones, the replies always threaded to the original message I forwarded to those individuals.
3. With iPhones, the replies refused to thread to the original message I forwarded to those individuals. It came back as a “re”, but did not end up near the original message I sent as an “fwd”.
The problem is that, up until a few months ago, replies from iPhones behaved the same as laptops and Android phones. Now they don't. What can be done to correct this?
