threaded¹

adjective more threaded · most threaded

  1. Having threads.
  2. not comparable Of messages: arranged in a thread or threads. A threaded email will commonly have a number, (e.g., (5)) after the sender's name to show how many emails are in that thread. An unthreaded email, however, will not have that number marker because all the messages are listed separately.
