If you want email clients to thread a response you need to set the In-
Reply-To and References headers in the email with the Message-ID of the
email you're responding to.
Right now, with the EmailMessage class, you can set both directly via the
headers= kwarg. However, maybe it is worth an explicit kwarg, like it
already has with cc, bcc and reply-to, to save the user the hassle of
looking up the relevant RFCs and figuring out what needs to be done. It is
a little bit of a weird case in that you have to set two different headers
to what is usually the same value.

Comment:
Thanks for the ticket, however, `headers` is the right place to add `in-
reply-to`, we don't want to add extra kwargs for all available headers.
This API is generally frozen.
