Step 5
❱ If you need to find a muted conversation or if you accidentally
muted a thread, don’t worry. Muted messages are not marked as
read and are still searchable. You can type is:muted into your Gmail
search box to find all muted conversations.
Step 6
❱ Conversation View in Gmail can be confusing at times.
To make things clearer and focus on a single reply, you can open
a single email from a conversation string. To do this, open the
Conversation and click on the top-right options Arrow (next to
the Reply button).
Step 7
❱ From the menu choose Print. This will open a single email in
a new tab or window. Close the print dialog window or press
escape. The tab stays open so you can refer to the email and keep
it open. To open a whole email conversation in a new tab, press
Ctrl when you click on the email.
