Problems using the "Arranged By: Conversation" option

[Shaun]

Hello,

I have Outlook 2007 and have a problem getting Outlook to group
conversations the way I want. I haven't found an answer from my web
searches so I thought I'd ask here. Sometimes Outlook creates two
conversations for the same thread if the thread title contains "Re:" at the
beginning. For example, if the thread title is "How do I do X?" and then
changes to "Re: How do I do X?" then there will be two conversation groups I
need to look at in order to read the entire thread. How can I make Outlook
put them all in the same conversation group? Thanks for any help.

Regards,
Shaun

Hello all,

I recently reached a point with some long threads where they're broken into
so many conversation groups that I cannot use Arranged By: Conversation to
intelligently follow them. So I wanted ask again if anyone knew how to
combine multiple conversation groups into one conversation group - for the
cases where Outlook doesn't handle it quite right. Alternatively, are there
any patches available for this? Seems like Outlook creates a new
conversation group each time a "Re:" is added to the subject line for the
same thread. Is there any way to change how/when Outlook adds a message to
an existing conversation vs. creating a new conversation for a message?
Thanks for any help.

Regards,
Shaun
