The issue I have is that I like a clean inbox. With the Sent folder selected I get all my sent messages along with the few inbox emails I have. Really I want to be able to see the whole conversation when I choose a particular email in my archive folder. I’ve tried different Smart Mailboxes but can’t seem to get it right.

In reply to Brian, I have been using Mail ever since I got my Macbook, and not once did I notice this. Sometimes Apple’s applications are so simple that you don’t bother checking what’s under the hood and end up missing out on some great features.

Nice website btw. Came here through MacSurfer.

This has been there forever, but I find the regular view more useful. Or just put the sender in the spotlight field.

Want a real tip? Check the menus when you get a program and you won’t be surprised to find out about features years later. Try each menu, there aren’t mroe than a couple dozen selections usually. It only takes a few minutes do evaluate software this way.
