Thanks Ken, I think conversation topic is the same as subject which is not
gonna be helpful because users change the subject when they reply.
I tested with conversationIndex here is the result
Original email recived
01C9D89635023F68E01D8F084ACD84E660C598661781

As you mentioned each time we reply it adds a string to the previous string
, how ever the only part which remains constant is the original string up to
…781 and after that text changes . I send these data to Excel for some
reporting purposes and I think I can find connection between them possibly by
using instr()
I have three questions.
1)You mentiones the addition string to the original conversationindex has
datetime structure , can we somehow use them? Like retrieve a date from it ?
2)Is conversationindex same as EntryId?
3)Assuming I have a conversationindex how can I find that specific email
among hundreds of emails in my inbox and display it?

All items in a thread share the same ConversationTopic property. Each new
item adds a new date/time structure to the end of the ConversationIndex
property, so the longer that property is the further down in the
conversation it is, the shorter the nearer the start of the conversation.

I think I have to explain more about what I’m trying to do . Ideally
after
I receive an email and keep it’s EntryID in my listbox , usually there are
several back and fort email’s in the same thread (Reply) Is there a way to
catch all the email’s that are part of this thread?
Example :
First email :A send an email to B for a job request.
Seoncd email :B replies with a question
Third email :A replies with answer
Fourth email : B finishes the job and replies with an email
Is it a way to keep track of the most recent email in the same thread ? It’s
easier to always work with the original email using it’s entryID , but
because EntryID changes each time we reply to the original email I don’t
know
how to find the following emails and always reply to the most recent one?
