"One way to make Mozilla Thunderbird more like Gmail is to turn on the
threaded view of your email. However, by default Thunderbird does not
maintain the threaded view when you sort by a column (such as sender,
date, etc.). Chris Ilias' Blog explains that you can configure
Thunderbird to maintain a threaded view even when you sort your email by
column."

Have you heard of this thing called "Google", Paul? :) That article is
the #1 hit when searching for "thunderbird threaded view" in Google.
