I'm curious about this. I found the tagging functionality for outbound mail. If I tag an outbound message, and someone replies to it, can I easily read back the tag from the reply message? Put another way--I want to send an outbound email in relation to a specific thread/ID, and if someone replies I want to associate their reply with that ID. What's the best way to do this with your system?

For your use case I would add your own Message-ID MIME header to the outgoing message. When a user replies, usually (in most cases) you'll see the ID of the original message as In-Reply-To header. And it will be posted as In-Reply-To HTTP parameter to your app. There's also "References" MIME header you can use. I hope this helps.
