But yeah conversations rock. The only thing now that I don't like about gmail is its compose window: I am too used to vi :) Aw c’mon! of course Mutt has a beautiful threading view.. why else would I be so lazy to move over to gmail!

I didn't know Pine or Mutt had this representation - am looking for a good graphical email application that has this kind of view. I was actually in the process of writing a post comparing the conversation view (essentially linear) with how an email conversation actually grows (tree-wise). Guess your inputs have put paid to that! @Karra:Ah, threading! I didn’t know Pine or Mutt had this representation – am looking for a good graphical email application that has this kind of view.

Gmail's 'Conversations' is good, but still not as good as a good implemenation of proper threading. Good threading will provide a complete tree representation of the mails. You would realize the usefulness of that only in really long threads running into hundreds of messages, when you want to kill off subthreads, and skip over some of them and so on........

"MS and Yahoo! are possibly surviving only because of their messengers."The only reason I have a Yahoo! account is because of Yahoo! Groups and Y! Messenger. Get rid of that, and you've got rid of Y! from my life!
