Use threaded view in Mutt

If you subscribe to mailing lists, you’ll be pleased to know about Mutt’s threading features. Mutt automatically sorts messages by topic, so that messages with the same topic end up organized sequentially. You can then use the cursor keys to navigate between messages in the same thread, allowing you to quickly view all the replies to a particular message. To use this feature, place the following in your ~/.muttrc file.

set sort=threads

Note: In threaded mode, a number of additional functions become available: you can delete all messages in a thread, collapse or expand a thread, mark a thread as read or unread, and jump to the start or end of a thread. See the Mutt manual for information on the keystrokes to access these functions.
