Gmail – How to Link to a Conversation That Opens Just the Conversation

gmail

I know I can create a permalink to a Gmail conversation, and I can pop out a conversation in a new window. What I'd like to do is combine the two.

With the Getting Things Done® software I am using, I like to add permalinks to the Gmail conversation(s) that are relevant to a particular action item or project. For the most part this works great, but I don't like how it opens the full Gmail client – I'd much rather see just the conversation itself, like what can be seen when you click the "new window" button in Gmail.

Is there some way to create a Gmail permalink that does this?

m.gmail.com - the mobile version of GMail can be used to get a URL that points directly to your email and doesn't load the GMail application.
