It's not the subject line... it's this lines in your e-mail 
header:

References: <tag:old.nabble.com,2006:post-29241238 at localhost.localdomain>
In-Reply-To: <tag:old.nabble.com,2006:post-29241238 at localhost.localdomain>

Notice that it has "old.nabble.com" and reference a post on 
"localhost.localdomain."  In contrast, a normal looking one 
is like this:

No, this /is/ the problem.

However, there should be a way to set up your feeds so that 
it produced a correctly formatted e-mail.  I've used, e.g., 
thunderbird to reply to ML's via gmane -- and AFAIK it 
worked correctly.
