Hi everyone,
I’m a happy Thunderbird user but I miss one feature.
Is there a way to have emails organized a bit like a Whatsapp/Signal conversation?
What I mean is that I would want to have the conversations sorted by the person you’re interacting with, no matter the topic and being able to just scroll up and down a conversation.
I have a lot of back and forth between my ex, her lawyer and mine and this feature would make things way easier if it exists.
Right now my conversations are already grouped under one discussion, but I still have to go to the sent emails to check what I’ve answered in the past…
Maybe the Thunderbird addon GMail conversation view produces the desired result.
In thunderbird there is an option to always add your own email to the bcc list. This will put all your replies directly into your inbox and thread them correctly in the conversation.
I’m gonna check this, thanks!
If you open your All Mail folder instead of your Inbox it should group all the emails (sent and received) together. However, when I try, it duplicates many emails, so it is confusing.
I don’t have an “All Mail” folder in thunderbird. Maybe this is something specific to your email provider?
Every email provider I have used has had an “All mail” folder. Perhaps it is called Archive by some providers.
However, you could create such a “folder” yourself. I’d suggest a tag actually. Set up a filter in thunderbird or via your email provider to tag all received emails and all sent emails with this tag. You can then open the tag to see all emails.
