Mail: Conversation View in threaded mail summary

Submitted by Flauchhaus on November 30, 2009 to Aesthetics, Annoyance, Usability

Problem: Mail allows viewing mails in threads but only shows a summary of the conversation (subject, date, sender) on the summary mail - but not the content of the mails. To view the content of the mails every mail still has to be opened one after another.

Solution: If "Organise by Thread" is enabled, the mail summary of the threaded mails should be improved by a Conversation View. If the mails are very huge or the conversation is very long, older mails automatically should collapse (similar to gmail).
