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.
