Yes. This is what I meant.
Even though you changed the subject, the email would still have other headers 
in it that are used by the email client to figure out the threading. These 
other headers would be related to the old topic rather than a new one.
So it's best to start afresh with a new email than copy an old one and change 
the subject.
Hope this helps.
