What you want to do is add the 'go to previous unread message' button, and
use that.

It's quite simple, when using a threaded display, sort by date sorts messages
based on the original message in the thread; sort by thread date sorts
messages by the latest message in the thread.

See the /View/Go to/ menu, it should have everything you need. You can assign
hotkeys to any or all of them.
