mu4e-conversation

This package offers an alternate view to mu4e e-mail display. It shows all e-mails of a thread in a single view, where each correspondant has their own face. Threads can be displayed linearly (in which case e-mails are displayed in chronological order) or as an Org document where the node tree maps the thread tree.
