How to disable email grouping (in conversation) in Gmail web mail for certain senders?
I have just realized that I have overlooked some important e-mails due to Gmail's automatic e-mail grouping in conversations.

Typically, this is a pretty useful feature to reduce the count, but some senders are not aware of this and send very similar e-mails (same sender, same subject) despite having different content (e.g. an invoice related e-mail for this month is not actually a reply for a similar e-mail last month).

Grouping in older threads might lead to losing some e-mails since they appear in older conversations.

This has been discussed in [this thread](https://support.google.com/mail/thread/4809262/how-to-prevent-emails-from-the-same-sender-being-grouped-together?hl=en), but the only solution seems to be disabling the functionality **for all senders**.

Is there any way to disable it only for some senders?
