[MlMt] Issue with showing messages in the same thread

Alex,

I do experience the same caveat as you

My work around:
use 2 smart mailboxes
- one to define the search so that it “contains” the message(s)
- one that gets all messages related to the tread(s) of the message(s) 
in the fist mailbox

Haven’t been able to find something more convenient


Regards,


Marc
