The default Conversation view mode can be enabled or disabled. You can also choose whether you wants to delete grouped messages in all folders. So I think you have your settings set so that conversation mode is enabled but deletion of grouped messages in all folders is disabled. See:

In Conversation view mode the idea is that once you read a conversation thread all copies of messages are marked as read (until a new message arrives, marking the conversation unread until you read any message in that conversation).

Fastmail is in the process of changing their user interface to JMAP. See:
https://www.fastmail.com/help/guides...date-2018.html
At this time, I see a different user interface on my PC (using a browser), my iPad (using a browser), and my iPad (using the Fastmail app). I see some differences on how conversations are being shown with these different user interfaces.
