Yeah. I would wish to have a vfolder or something where every thread I
participated in is listed in full. Note that I have no idea whether this
is feasible or not, I know just that it would help me.

Example:
me 1
reply 1
reply 2
I addition to the exclusions you already gave, I doubt that above
approach would catch reply 2, would it?

FreeAgent, a offline-capable newsreader I used years ago on Win 3.1 had
this ability: to avoid downloading every thread, you would first
download all the headers. Then you could mark threads you were
interested in, which would cause the bodies of these messages to be
downloaded from then on. That would be enough for me. It amounts to a
option display in vfolder "Threads" "if thread contains mail from
<email>" or "if thread has <property> set". Sure it would be cool if it
were automatic, but I know nothing about smtp and can't say anything
about your above proposal.
