<P>One way to make Mozilla Thunderbird more like Gmail is to turn on the threaded view of your email.  However, by default Thunderbird does not maintain the threaded view when you sort by a column (such as sender, date, etc.).  Chris Ilias' Blog explains that you can configure Thunderbird to maintain a threaded view even when you sort your email by column.</p> <BLOCKQUOTE>What if you want to keep threaded view on? Go to Tools-&gt;Options-&gt;Advanced-&gt;General, and click on "Config Editor".  In the Config Editor, search for the preference  <CODE>mailnews.thread_pane_column_unthreads</CODE>. Double-click on it, which should change the value to false.</BLOCKQUOTE>
