Gmail newest message on the top in conversation view

Conversation view is a Google Mail setting that allows you to set whether emails of the same subject are grouped together. It shows you how the conversation evolved, and you do not have to open several emails to follow the conversation or go searching for a message you may have already read and responded to.

By default, Conversation view is turned on in Google Mail; you can turn it on/off in settings.

About Conversation View (turned on)

1. Conversation view stacks messages with the first (oldest) at the top and the last (newest) at the bottom
2. When you open a conversation, it may be collapsed; click on the "x older messages" lines to expand the group and see who said what, when. Then, click on any message in this list to read the full response and click it again to close it.
   1. collapsed:
   2. opened:
   3. Or, to expand all messages in a conversation click the Expand all button on the top right of the screen

Change the Conversation View Setting

1. Sign into Google Mail at www.stonybrook.edu/mycloud with your NetID and NetID password
2. Click on the gear icon in the top right corner and select Settings
3. Scroll down to Conversation View; select Conversation view off or Conversation view on

Just wanted to know if possible to show the latest email on top of the email thread when the group by conversation is enabled.

On the current setup, all new email shows below the email thread. User's need to scroll down on the email thread to read the new email however this is tedious in scrolling specially if the thread is too long.

Let me know if there's an application already that can do arrange or sort the the message if the group by conversation is turn on.

I installed the extention then restarted Gmail. My conversational views are still sorting with the most recent at the end of the thread. Disappointing.

Brian Del TerzoAug 8, 2023

This extension appears to only be working intermittently. I can't figure out what the inconsistency is, but something is off here. I'm hoping by posting this review, we can get the attention of the developer because this is a much needed gmail/google workspace feature.
