> I really strongly dislike how it munges together different conversation threads under a person, which at the same time excludes other emails from other people that were part of that thread.

That's what the thread view is for. Simply click the small icon next to a message's subject (the one with the number of emails in a thread) and you'll all of the referenced messages.

Thanks that's actually a helpful tip.

It doesn't quite solve the whole problem for me, which is that:

* I like to scan conversation threads (of all conversations I'm having presently, not just those involving a single person) -- it's one of the primary ways I look at my mail.

* I find having all of the messages munged together from different conversations I'm involved in with a person to be disconcerting ESPECIALLY since those messages lack the context from other people involved in the context. It's visual cacophony to me. Contrast this with Apple Mail VIPs: When I click on a VIP, I see all of the conversations I'm involved in with that person, not the individual messages.

That's just me and my brain. I could of course just be an anomaly.
