That's why I've had a [Tree] link in the program since almost the beginning.

Very few people use email sub-threads. Most emails are individual
things that come into your box linearly. I rarely see sub threads used even
in mailing lists.

Other email threads are one level deep threads. This is the only
view a lot of popular clients even bother supporting.

(this does bring up something - my emails are marked as read individually.
They are unread based on time, but read based on being open with an
individual flag in the message. So I was wrong about that before.)
