If you are arranging a meeting or event with a friend or colleague use the reply button every time even if it goes to and fro half a dozen times.  That way you both have a record of everything said and the chance of misunderstanding is limited.

This is equally true when more than two people are involved.

Now if you have more than one event to arrange with the same person use a fresh email.  Don't try to arrange two events with one email.

Even if you send two emails to the same person one straight after the other it will make it easier.  Some people call this separate threads.

For example if you want to fix up a outing to the theatre and a shopping trip don't try to do it with one email.  Use two threads and it will be much easier.
