It's showing up fine, here.  I'd guess it's because you're using e+2mail 
(gmail).  Since you sent the first message without [mythtv-users], gmail 
showed you your subject.  However, it threads all the others and is 
probably just grouping them all with the same subject.

(This is all speculation based on my having heard that Google does 
things differently.  Perhaps they've determined that a thread having 
different subjects is evil and, well, they...)
