Just a quick heads up here, that deleting the body text of a message or
changing the subject line, does not alter the 'linkage' between posts.

There are standards for how messages are 'threaded' and largely have to
do with the e-mail headers, not the e-mail content.

A couple of quick references that might be helpful:
