Search view: shows by thread. I just want it to show a simple list!

When i search in Thunderbird, the result is a thread view

Even when I sort by date, for example (newest email 1st), I don't get the most recent message on top. The entire list is shown in thread views and it is cumbersome to find the latest message

For example, let's say i have 3 threads with the user john@doe.com, each thread with say, 4 messages in them.

When i search for john@doe.com, the 3 threads show up, with all the messages. But if the 2nd thread has the most recent message, even when i use the sort by date feature, it may not be on top.

How do get rid of this thread based view in search results?

Thanks

Does View/Sort by/Unthreaded help? Press Alt if the Menu Bar with View is hidden.
