# Read mail as conversations

With conversation view on, replies to the same mail are grouped into one row with a number showing how many messages it holds. Tap the row to see the thread, then tap a message to read it. To show every message on its own row, turn off Threaded view in display settings.

## How to read mail as conversations

1. Open **Settings**, **General settings**, **Display**, **Message lists**.
2. Switch **Threaded view** on or off.
3. In the list, tap a row that shows a number above 1 to open the thread.

## When to use it

> A reply chain on the quarterly budget has six mails. It shows as one row with a 6, and Meera opens it once.

## Good to know

- Threaded view is on by default.
- Search results are never grouped.
- Conversations are built on the phone from the mails already downloaded.
