I can tinker with that approach, and it might prove beneficial. But I am really after an automated setup that creates a storage system for original-topic emails, along with the replies I send.
Much like text messaging provides currently. I can follow a text message conversation easily, because my replies are automatically displayed in-line with the other persons responses. Email should work the same way. I shouldn't have to "filter" or "search" or anything else to be able to view an entire conversation. We seem to be stuck in the paradigm of thinking email users should store replies in various folders. And in order to get my response into the conversation, I have to go to a "Sent Items" folder and each time manually copy my replies into a particular folder. Even a basic setup that includes all parts of a conversation, like this email list, is preferable to anything I've found in current offerings. And it should be relatively easy to build. Just have CF manage that emails behind the scenes as the conversation flows. Then, should I want to review or send a *complete* conversation to someone else, I can simply refer to what CF has created for me. It's ridiculously complex to try to reassemble an email conversation. It's time for a new approach. That's what I'm trying to accomplish and what led to my original question.

Going back to the original question, one thing we use is http://highrisehq.com/ which basically by BCC'ing an email in every reply you do (or forwarding an email) it can be stored against that client. Would that help? I know it's not automatic, but then again, I am not sure of your goals.
