[MlMt] Confused About Threading

[Chaim Kram]

To deal with the threading issue I simply created a smart mailbox that 
combines my Inbox with my Sent mail, and in fact use that as my default 
“Inbox”. Then I can always see full threads as well as messages 
I’ve sent that are not replies (but want to keep visible for myself 
until they reply).

I actually have two smart mailboxes using this scheme, one for 
“Personal” and one for “Work”, and so for each one I can mix and 
match folders from various mail accounts as needed. HTH.
