Threads aren't exactly the concept you ask for, because the include the
messages before the message-id in question as well. Nonetheless, maybe
the following helps:


% notmuch show $(notmuch search --output=threads $MESAGEID)

or

% notmuch search --output=messages $(notmuch search --output=threads $MESAGEID)
