Is there a Java library that can take an email, compare it to a database of emails and find other emails that might be from the same “thread” of emails similar to mailing lists?

Actually I stand corrected there might be an implementation of an algorithm you can use. Depends on what sort of API your using to read your email.

This describes an algorithm you could use to reconstitute the threads. Email is tricky, and lots of clients don’t implement standards correctly so it becomes a pain.
