That's better, but it's still difficult to use. I think mail-archive.com has 
the ideal design for a tree view:

http://www.mail-archive.com/digitalmars-d-learn@puremagic.com/

Granted, they desperately need to fix the problem where all replies are 
shown with only one level of indenting (it works fine when you're viewing a 
message, though), and they lack the ability to post. But other than that, I 
think it would be good to mimic their design as much as possible.

Another great example is lists.puremagic.com:

http://lists.puremagic.com/pipermail/dmd-beta/2011-October/thread.html

All that needs is some nicer styling (or *some* styling!), an actual 
partial-tree-view when viewing a message (like mail-archive.com, instead of 
just "Previous"/"Next") and, again, the ability to post.

Whenever I'm not using my real email/NG client, I use one of those two - 
mail-archive.com and lists.puremagic.com. The only major thing either of 
them actually needs is the ability to post. With that added in, I'd be 
perfectly happy with them.
