to make outlook app like outlook pc client that shouldn't chain all the emails with same subject in the single thread. it should appear 1by1
that will make the search more easy also if you single email from one thread is being flagged, it won't flag all the emails on that thread. Also the emails would appear distinct and not clubbed all together

automatically discard draft messages that are empty.
When someone mistakenly begins a new draft and they cancel the message, delete the draft if it's empty. Don't force the user to notice the little notification to delete it. This is just following the 80-20 rule here. Make the common use cases easier.
