Comment by Mikos on 12 Sep 2006 19:32 UTC Please, add this feature. I want to switch to RoundCube, but because email conversations are missing, I must stay with GMail (and I also know other people for which conversation view is really important). |

Severity changed by Mikos on 12 Sep 2006 19:32 UTC => critical |

Comment by info on 18 Dec 2006 11:11 UTC This is very important feature. It would allow RoundCube compete with Gmail. I could help with some coding, I really want this feature available. |

Comment by rogerpueyo on 19 May 2007 14:51 UTC It would be very useful, surely. SquirrelMail, Mutt, and other clients already have this feature, so maybe some code or some ideas could be grabbed from them. |

Comment by kraymer on 4 Dec 2007 13:17 UTC Seconded. With several mailing lists in my inbox folder(s) I'd really appreciate this feature too. |

Comment by zargon on 23 Jun 2009 20:32 UTC Threaded view and conversation view are not the same. This is not a duplicate of 1424907. In threaded view, you must still open each message of a thread separately. In conversation view, all messages of a thread are displayed simultaneously. |

Comment by bilbo on 7 Aug 2011 13:31 UTC This would be really nice to have, there are not many mail clients or opensource webmails having the conversation view (the only one I can think of is development version of Thunderbird) As roundcube already have some grouping into conversations, it should not be very hard: Instead of showing [+] in threaded view, in conversation view it could show number of emails in the conversation (similarly to gmail) -> should be easy The rest of the messages from that thread won't be shown. Opening first message from the thread (actually, the only one visible) will then open entire conversation. As in gmail, messages that are read can be collapsed and unread messages can be initially shown. -> won't be so easy, but perhaps repeating the standard "message" component for every mail and putting it into collapsible div may do the trick. Then once it is done there is some space for improvement - in gmail, you see list of senders, some of them in bold (unread) in the place of sender column, the date of conversation is date of last message in the thread, etc ... so perhaps adding some of these to roundcube may improve the usability of conversation view. |

Comment by abudden on 8 Nov 2011 15:11 UTC Another vote for this feature. I use Roundcube on and off, but I think I would switch to it as the main email interface if it supported this. At the moment, I just get frustrated by the mess of emails in my inbox when compared to gmail's conversation view. |

Comment by poomerang on 29 Mar 2012 12:52 UTC is there any chance of this being implemented at any point? |
|

Comment by codethief on 3 Jan 2013 18:31 UTC Came here to bump this. :) 7 years already passed I wonder when this feature request will finally be considered important enough to implement it? There's a reason why GMail has become so popular. On the other hand, it's probably this feature (and the missing labels) that prevent many people from using RoundCube. I would as well love to donate if someone implemented this. |
|
Comment by rroche on 18 Apr 2013 21:03 UTC So I just registered to bump this. Just installed Roundcube a few months ago, and this is the Number 1 feature request from my co-workers. Well that and shared calendars which it looks like I have to purchase from myroundcube.com, unfortunate but they need it, so it will be done. Any ideas on where to start with this? I am pretty familiar with PHP so I am going to go hunting, but a little push wouldn't hurt either. |

Comment by bugsbane on 1 May 2013 14:54 UTC Every 6 momths or so for the last few years I come back and check if this is in Roudcube yet. What amazes me is that NO foss webmail has this feature, despite it being one of the most popular improvements that differentiates Gmail over everything FOSS has to offer. I hate using local clients, but I've been using Thunderbird for years now, purely because of their Conversations plugin, which is perfect (except for being local, rather than a web app). Anyway, I appreciate all of the work that everyone has done in Roundcube to make it the best FOSS webmail today, and I hope that will extend to conversation view without having to wait too many more years. |

Comment by mikegioia on 9 Jun 2013 14:40 UTC I would love this feature, too. It may be the only thing holding me back from my eventual GMail migration. I'm a PHP/JS dev and I think I'll have some substantial free time this summer. If anyone on this ticket is interested in getting the ball rolling, I'd love to open the convo again. |

Comment by rizzopablo on 9 Jun 2013 16:28 UTC I pick up the gauntlet. Let's do it Mike! |
|
Comment by votacom on 9 Jun 2013 16:46 UTC +1 Now that PRISM went public, i more than ever try to get rid off Google/ Gmail to migrate to my home server and provide Webmail service to me and my friends/family. Conversation view is truly the only feature I'm missing. |
|
Comment by Faldrian on 11 Sep 2013 20:55 UTC I want to have a good replacement for GMail, but I have not found a webmail that does the workflow as good as GMail does. Please consider putting effort into building this view-mode. |
|
This is an interesting feature. |
|
Very nice to have. I wonder how hard this would be? How easy is Roundcube to learn and modify? How willing will the community be to have this feature submitted by an unknown coder? I suspect if one starts to look at the code this is not trivial and that is why it has not been done. |
|
This is the most important feature in order to improve usability. All other major webmails, including hotmail/outlook have implemented this, even Thunderbird has the feature vía addons. It's really strange rc still didn't have conversations after so many years. |
|
+1 These days where every major client (web or not) supports this, not having it is a show-stopper for further adoption. |
|
I think a cross folder conversation view is essential. |
|
So when does it come this beloved feature? Waiting for it since long!!! Can someone give me an update? Or does enybody know an alternative which implements this feature? |
|
I think this thread is all the strength and all the weakness of open source. If you need it, do it yourself. But why? I can require implementation of it. |
|
Hello,
IMO, this is a must-have feature in 2019. I read in other forums that people stay with gmail etc because of the lack of open source webmail which has real conversation view (i.e. my own messages are part of the conversation view). @sattellite I think open source also means to decide together what the priority is, what the community needs. If I could code it I would have already started. |
|
Just as a note, we're not adopting RoundCube because the lack of this feature. |
|
But ... most free projects which implemented conversations in the past... have died! |
|
we still need it |
|
What's the current status of this issue? It's really hard to see, with the migrated trac comments. |
|
Absulutely amazing feature. I vote for it by my both hands! |
|
Of the over 6,000 open (and closed) issues, this is the second most upvoted: https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/issues?q=sort%3Areactions-%2B1-desc and after 14 years, not even a developer response. @alecpl or someone, can you advise? I would like to leave Gmail but this issue is a blocker. |
|
Hey guys, I need such functionality for my organization too, so I tried to write plugin for this purpose, you can find it here: https://github.com/bolsunovskyi/rcube_threadchats |
The same for us. It's a clear blocker |
|
still need this feature |
|
I would donate to a crowdfund for this feature. |
|
Everyone! It's Feb. 2021, I found this feature already exists. It's just well hidden. Click on |
It's not the same 😉 |
Care to outline how exactly? Just for clarity as to what is expected from this ticket? I can see how it would be nice to be able to highlight the reply-chain and see it displayed all at once in the reading area. |
|
Take a look at gmail |
|
@mick-p1982 main ones:

It seems like it would be fine if the sent/received/sorted emails were transcluded into the thread listing. It is tedious to only be able to read one at a time.
Define "related"? I know maybe email doesn't implicitly have a strict reply structure, but the desire is to scope email to replies right? Nothing more? If there is any form of compression to reduce quotes in the email tails that could be criteria for grouping and date sorting. I think you guys should make a fresh Issue in the current issue tracker since this one is imported from an old system, and there's probably a tracker the team uses. I think the problem here is likely no one has eyes on this topic/thread. |
