Google Mail: Edit Subject of a Conversation Thread
In Google Mail, you can change the subject of a mail conversation that has already been started. When you do this and send the email, the recipients will receive the email in their inbox as a new conversation.
Note:
If you simply want each email you receive (including those with the same subject line) to appear as a new conversation thread, see the Google Mail: Turn Off Conversation View help page.

- To the left of the name of the person you are replying to, click the dropdown arrow. A pop-up menu appears.

If you would like to change the conversation thread of a message that you are forwarding, you can complete these same steps. In step 5, simply click to "Forward" the message instead of reply to it.
