Reply detection seems to be broken #11

Hi, if I have an existing email thread like this:

A
|- B
   |- C

and I mark message C as expecting a reply, it will tell me that "This message has been replied to" even though that is not the case. Does it only track the toplevel message A and its replies? Or can I also mark parts of a conversation as needing a reply on their own? Thanks and best regards, mg

The current way of checking is done by using Gloda's conversation property. I collect all messages in a conversation and check the sender regardless of the part of conversation hierarchy it is in. I guess this is too simple to handle all common use cases.

That explains the behaviour. Do you think it can be improved? Sorry, I have no experience in Addon development so far. :(
