I don't think that says anything about what happens when the thread is collapsed - you may imply from it some interpretation, but nothing is said. Personally, I don't think the wording actually makes sense - apart from the ungrammatical "below of", the one you "see" first (or need to see first) is actually the oldest unread message surely, not the newest one? I can see that it would be useful if the message displayed in a collapsed thread is an unread one (i.e. the from and date etc), and I can also see it being useful that expanding a collapsed thread would result in the message displayed being the oldest unread or, if no unread messages, the newest message. And while were on collapsed threads, an indication of the number of unread messages in a thread would be good.
