Milan, I do this for a small number of conversations, but it's laborious
to set up. I've asked for an enhancement to make this easier
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=386036) which you took action
on. However I don't see the "filter on sender and recipients" option
anywhere in 2.24.4. Is this what "match-all" means? It's not very clear.
The help says that "match-all" matches all the criteria listed, but
"match-all" is itself presented in the drop-down menu of criteria. How
is this supposed to work?

BTW, as I understand it the proposed Tbird 3 feature would automatically
sort *all* messages into conversations, which is not the same thing at
all.
