I'm not sure I'm clear on what you're trying to do. Poco will allow you to sort by thread, and by other attribute such as E-Mail address. It will do it with one click. For instance, if I have all the posts from PCTechTalk in a subfolder, I can click on one E-Mail and right click to select "show thread" or "show ?". The ? is options such at E-Mail address. That makes it easy to sort and read, and with one click I am back to the whole subdirectory. Is that the kind of thing you're looking for?
