Feature Request: Conversation view to group by subject + date #72

Open Coder-DG opened 3 years ago

Coder-DG commented 3 years ago

Currently the conversation view groups all emails with the same subject, I wanted to request having the option to group it also by date, on top of the subject.

For example, I'm getting lots of notifications from my bank about transactions, and all of them have the same subject line. In Gmail it'd use to be grouped by to the same conversation only if: A. I'd have an actual conversation with the sender using the same subject line (with Re: prepended) and we'd go back and forth with that email. B. I'd receive an email with the same subject line close to the time I received the other one. So if I'd receive one 10m later, it'd be shown as the same conversation. Otherwise, if it came a month later then it'd be shown as a separate email.

Right now I'd see 40 emails next to the email itself, and I can't tell how many of those emails did I get recently without clicking it and checking the timestamps.

I hope this makes sense and has been posted in the right place.

Thank you.

I would love that change because i am getting backup notifications of dozens of servers every day. If i want to check them I have to search them in the weird conversation view because the subject is the same every time.

Let's hope they're reading the issues here. Maybe it's simple to fix in the code, although it'll probably take some time to run a whole env to test it
