I receive emails from couple of distribution lists. I move them to
respective Personal folders. To clean-up fast I used to group the
emails on Conversation and delete all the emails in the thread except
the ones on the lower most level. This way it is enough for me to
store only one email in a thread of 10 or 15 or how many ever, since
this one email will have all the emails in the thread. I tried all
options to automate this process but couldn't. Is there a way to
automate this or this needs to be a new feature?

I don't know of any way to automate this, but no matter how you do it, it
assumes that the mailing list posters are so clueless that they always
include the entire thread in their replies or you'd be missing a lot of
context. Such an assumption is largely invalid.
