I just want the messages that have appeared since the last inc to show up in a way that calls attention to them (a different face, preferably, but a mark would do in a pinch). When you have large numbers of unread messages, it's difficult to find the one new one that just added itself to a thread.

I need the threaded display. I'd like to be able to find, at a glance, the stealth replies that have attached themselves to old threads.
