Both your replies in that thread are threading correctly here and contain the correct entries in the 'References:' header that are used to thread articles so you are sending correctly formatted messages.
That suggests it is your reader that is mis-threading them on receipt.
Can't help further I'm afraid as I don't use Outlook Excuse but at least it's narrowed down to your receive side rather than your send side. Perhaps another can help further but it is a notoriously poor newsreader.
Having said that, I use OE and it is threading fine for me. No new threads started out of place.
