Find Related email options #7509

Open derekakelly opened 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Having used Outlook for a long time, I find myself missing the option to 'Find Related', 'Messages from Sender', and 'Messages in the Conversation'. It saves a lot of time when searching for older emails.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like to see these options added to the menu for each email in my inbox. Perhaps within the 'More Actions' submenu? image

Describe alternatives you've considered

Messages from sender is clear to me. It's a shortcut to a search result. But what does Messages in this conversation do? This is only relevant if message threads are not shown in groups, right?

It searches by the email subject, but ignores FW: and RE: Useful for individual conversations, but also for when multiple people are replying to the same email thread.

To add to @derekakelly : Outlook does not filter on thread Id neither, but only on initial subject. With this mails coming from MTA not respecting threadid are still collected and grouped. Much like a failover on threads feature.
