You can temporarily bookmark the original message, or for a low tech solution,
just write down the 5 digit message number.  You can then jump to any message
number with:

 Insert message number here ----------------

If you need to find the original message for any thread, you can follow the
thread backward by repeatedly clicking on the link following "In Reply to:" on
the second line of any message which is a followup.
