When we’re talking with a group of our friends, it’s usually about something specific, and now we can label our conversations accordingly. Click the Details button inside a group message and you’ll see an option to give it a proper name, letting you easily jump to it when you have something new to add. And, [...]
Sometimes words just aren't good enough to express what we want to say, and in Yosemite they don't have to be. Just like in iOS 8, you’ll see a new microphone icon next to the compose window in Messages. Click and you’ll instantly be able to record an audio message and ship it as easily [...]

Previous iOS versions of Mail did a fine job grouping conversations together, but during a hectic workday threads could get split up, making it hard to hunt down missing pieces.
It's nice to have the ability to draw on attachments in Mail, but in actuality, it's not so easy to make neat lines using a trackpad.
