Details

I archive almost all emails in a way that is like what GMail does. I almost never delete an email in TB. When I search through my Archives folders, I would like to see the entire thread of emails, including emails I sent out. Today, the Archives folders just capture the emails from other people, so part of the thread is missing. I know I can implement some hack (maybe bcc myself and set up a filter to move emails to an Archive folder, but that's a mess, and I would need to update the filter every January 1...) but I'd rather that the software found a way to let me keep everything together inside the Archives folders.
When you are on one message of the thread. In the header of the email click on Other actions -> show in conversation.
please don't file RFE bugs as NORMAL. Also, I think there may be a bug that goes a step beyond what ludo mentions in comment 1. An alternative I've used is a virtual folder that spans all folders

on further reflection, this is a likely dup, but i'm not sure Bug 480228 is the only potential match.
