How can I disable the use of threads? It is driving me crazy. I want to have my mail in pure chronological order.

Perhaps read the support documentation. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/message-threading-thunderbird#w_disable-threading-on-a-folder

Tried that whole "make it so for all the li'l folders after it! :D" bit and it didn't work; I still have to go in and do it folder by folder by folder by... Furthermore, it does not seem to break the threaded link, which is what I do not want in the first place.

Yes, it seems to ultimately come back. It might take days or weeks (after an update? not sure), but then there will suddenly be threads again. And although I eventually find a way to disable it again (after consulting Google search results), there is not an obvious way -- especially when the menu bar is hidden by default. Why would Mozilla add such an awkward (and awkwardly implemented) default?!?!
