Own Messages/Replies missing in conversations

[Florian Schwade]

Hi!

I have a question about the conversation view in K9 Mail. In the settings I enabled the feature "group messages of the same discussion". On my IMAP Server I have some rules configured to move mails to certain folders. If there is a discussion about e.g. "3. Meeting" all messages are put in a defined folder. With the mentioned feature, K9 nicely groups these messages into one "thread". However, my own replies in these threads are not displayed. If there are mails that I answered there is just the grey arrow but my reply is not displayed in the conversation. I only have one account configured. For sending mails I sometimes use an identity. I have disabled the special accounts/global inbox. Even if I have it enabled my own replies are not displayed in a discussion.
Is there a setting that I missed, so that my own messages are displayed in a conversation?
Regards,
Florian

Your own replies are probably in the "sent" folder so they don't get included
in the discussion.

That's the point. Probably Google has made us accommodated with some good GMail features. GMail merges all incoming and outgoing messages in a single thread and shows all the messages in both the in and out boxes. I think it would be great if K9 showed the messages that way.

That is simple to accomplish. Just set it to BCC all messages you send to yourself.

Thanks for all the developers for K-9. I should have complimented them in my first message yesterday.

John, thank you for responding.

I will test your idea for the next days, but I think that there is at least two points in it that makes it sub-optimal:
1. you generate a notification whenever you send a message, which is annoying.

2. a thread which was created from messages exchanged while you were using GMail in the computer would not show all messages on the phone unless you send your messages with bcc on the computer also, which forces you to remember to do that for every message.

If you look at settings/account settings/notifications, you can choose whether or not to generate a notification when you send email. Also, if you look at settings/account settings/sending email/composition defaults, you can set it to BCC yourself on every message, without having to set it on a message-by-message basis.

Thank you. I was not aware of your first tip. Anyway, IMHO I think that K9 would rather follow the GMail implementation in order to be even better. At hte minimum, such an implementation would have the benefit for the user to show all the threads the same way in both the browser an K9.
