Portuguese term or phrase: "raciocínio sequenciado"
Gostaria de saber se existe em inglês alguma expressão para o termo "raciocínio sequenciado". O contexto: Tem um interlocutor que toda vez que lhe passo um email ele responde em outro email (outro assunto). Isto perde o "raciocínio sequenciado" que pode ser obtido por exemplo se uma pessoa futuramente for ter acesso ao assunto. Preciso que ele responda sempre no mesmo email para que não se perca o "raciocínio sequenciado"! obrigado!

neutral  Gilla Evans: I like your thinking here, but it's difficult to talk of a 'paper trail' in the context of electronic communications. Could we invent an email expression equivalent to 'paper trail'?
