I frequently get that many responses to a post on LJ, and they all get threaded together. If I want to save a couple of proper replies later, then they're in the middle of that.

I also frequently start the day with an email saying "Hi" to a friend or two, and then we're still replying when I leave the office in the evening. There'll be at least 50 emails in that thread, and freqently a fair bit more.

I find that starring the relevant ones works for me too.

Fortunately I don't have to worry about using workarounds like that any more - I can just read them all individually. Context is rarely a problem with email for me, so having them all grouped together doesn't gain me anything.

Ah. I still have my LJ go to yahoo... never bothered to change it.

All of my stuff goes to andrew@ducker.org.uk. It's the only email account I actually use. I used to also use andrew@notzen.com, but I haven't even checked that in an age.
