Deleting the uninteresting threads of grouped messages, cleans up quite efficiently. Pity we couldn't change this mode on the fly like Outlook, so we can then read the better bits remaining, more efficiently.

Again, not very efficient. By grouping a conversation you can quickly get to any responses that may or may not be relevant. I would not even consider trying to parse messages on a list as busy as this without grouping.
