Conversations

An email thread in a connected mailbox, as Gmail reports it.

A conversation is one email thread in a connected mailbox. It holds the thread's messages.

How it works

The sync sets each conversation's subject, a snippet, its participants, the time of its last message, whether it is unread or still in the inbox, and its Gmail labels. The Recent view lists conversations by their last message, newest first.

A conversation belongs to the connection it came from, and only people who can read that mailbox see it. A thread you delete in Gmail is deleted from Continual too.

Object: changes freely, and its history keeps the old values.
