I have an idea that might be useful, but I haven't been following really closely, please excuse the possible noise The thread code arranges the display based on some field/information that correllates sub-sets of email. I don't know what it is, but if the place where it looks to decide whether or not to include a partcular email in a thread were a setable option, like $folder - would that met OP's needs? Of course threading, as implemented now, assumes that the grouping is a rooted tree, which is actually more complicated than a simple grouping. -- Paul E Condon pecon...@mesanetworks.net
