> JIRA mails subject line is formatted in such a way that leads GMAIL to put mails of the same JIRA issue in separate threads, because of the words "Created" , "Updated" , "Commented" , "Resolved" appearing in the subject line.
> I just learned from a discussion of this in Lucene (see [1] below) that there is a simple work around for this: modify the subject line so that the specific action words like "Created", "Updated", etc. appear within the square brackets, as in:
> - [jira - Updated]: (SOLR-1499) SolrEntityProcessor - DIH EntityProcessor that queries an external Solr via SolrJ
> instead of current
> - [jira] Updated: (SOLR-1499) SolrEntityProcessor - DIH EntityProcessor that queries an external Solr via SolrJ
> It appears that GMAIL threads detection ignores the text within the squared brackets.
> I tested this by sending some mails 
> To my understanding this is now supported by JIRA (see [2] below).
> Is this correct? - can the Apache JIRA subject line be modified accordingly?
> If so, can it be modified for specific projects, or should that be a single same setting for all Apache projects?
> If this is possible at all, if setting per project is possible, I will ask in Lucene dev list to make sure there are no objections to changing this for SOLR and LUCENE. 
> Thanks,
