https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kde3/2019-08/msg00002.html claims no further messages. The rest of the thread's messages seem to be in a new thread, which is not the case, only caused by the change in month:
https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kde3/2019-09/msg00000.html continues the thread with unbroken references in headers, including the OP 848bc5fd-75b9-b413-aa1e-c8e926b0736b@....

It would appear our current mail archiving software (mhonarc) does not deal correctly with a thread spanning two months. I agree this is unfortunate.
