At least mutt will generated such when tagging multiple messages and
tag-replying to them.  :)
It will also then automatically quote all tagged messages in the
tag-reply. By 'tag-reply' I mean using the 'use the next command on
all tagged messages' prefix command before hitting reply.
I.e. (assuming default keybindings) tag multiple messages with 't', 
then use ';r' to tag-reply.

The annoying thing of course is that some (many?) web-mailers don't
even bother setting In-Reply-To or References...
