As long as I am at it, I have another annoyance with Entourage 2004.
Entourage X that I used to use had a threaded view that was great for
reading mailing lists like this. However it seems to have been eliminated in
2004. Has anyone found a way to restore or simulate the prior capability.

I know about the "New" "better" view options with grouping and such. However
grouping by subject sticks an extra line for each thread taking up valuable
real-estate on the screen. And the disclosure triangle does not work. If I
create a custom view with the groups initially collapsed, they stay
collapsed. If I use the standard group by subject, they are expanded and
stay expanded. Also with grouping on, using the space bar to page through
the messages stops at the end of each group and I have to manually move the
focus to the next group of messages.

I have turned grouping off and sorted by subject with oldest on top. This is
close to the old method, except the indenting of reply messages does not
happen and there is no disclosure triangle to collapse the individual
threads.

I am assuming that we just have to suffer some set-backs in the name of
progress in other areas even if we do not use them.

Thanks for any advice,

   Jim
