Open the existing Reply directly from the original incoming message header

[Rumplestiltskin]

When I reply to an eMail, a little arrow appears in the header line of the eMail list to indicate I've replied to that incoming eMail. I'd like to see that arrow be a link (button) to open that reply directly without having to go into the "Sent" folder and search for the reply.

Have you tried right clicking the list entry and selecting open > Open message in conversation?

Indeed, I have done so. However, the conversation often consists of many messages and the selected message in the conversation isn't necessarily next to the reply; so I'm still searching for my reply.

Apple Mail has this feature nailed without having to use a "conversation". It brings you directly to the reply.
