Hi, first time posting, so if I´m in the wrong forum please excuse me.
I have a feature request, if that is the right wording?

Background: Long time user of Thunderbird privately, but forced to use "MS Outlook" at work.

Question/feature enhancement request:
The only thing I miss in Thunderbird, is the feature to search "related messages".
In "MS Outlook", you can right click a message and select "search related / search related in this conversation", which is really useful when you get a lot of emails, you can easily filter out what messages you have sent/received on a subject matter.
(See attached screenshot in Swedish, translation is: "sök relaterade = search related, meddelanden i den här konversationen = messages in this conversation"

This is a neat feature in "MS Outlook", and the only thing I miss in Thunderbird, would be a great feature if it would be possible to implement.

Ps.
English is not my first language, so excuses for any spelling errors.

Thanks for posting. This feature was available before last update with a right click on msg to check related conversation msgs but right now i just noticed that option desapeared as i cant track conversations from i.e. a sent mail at diferent folders ;(  im wondering how usefull was this option and when will be reimplemented. Maybe there´s a different way for conversation search now... Have a nice day.
