I am effectively looking for what this does, only for a whole thread. Something along the lines of having a summary buffer showing only one thread (in notmuch see screenshot [1]), and when I select a single article, it expands the article *in the summary buffer* [2]. > > In a summary buffer, you do have the option of hiding threads (T H). Yes - very useful indeed.

Ah, I see. You want a combined summary + article view. Similar to what you get in gmail, I guess. I don't think you'll find anything like this in gnus unfortunately as the various views are completely separate buffers. You want an inline expansion of the article within the summary buffer. Personally, I prefer the gnus approach in that I can see the thread structure in the summary window and then each individual article when desired. But obviously this is a personal taste issue! -- : Eric S Fraga, GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D : in Emacs 24.3.50.1 + Ma Gnus v0.8 + evil 1.0-dev : BBDB version 3.02 ($Date: 2013/05/15 13:17:58 $) ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

But obviously this is a personal taste issue! I actually don't remember why I was looking for it. But it is most definitely not a deal breaker to leave gnus. If I need it, I can always search the message in notmuch. Thanks a lot, Rainer -- Rainer M.

I think this would be very useful in contexts where people do top-posting (at everybodys work, these days, it seems). It is kind of "auto-digest a thread and elide the quotations". If it reordered the emails "oldest first", it would actually make top-posted threads make sense. Hey, somebody should make this!

Yes, that would make sense and it could indeed be useful in ameliorating the top-posting epidemic! -- : Eric S Fraga, GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D : in Emacs 24.3.50.1 + Ma Gnus v0.8 + evil 1.0-dev : BBDB version 3.02 ($Date: 2013/05/15 13:17:58 $) ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
