(Get the code!)
Mike - thanks for that. Changing that pref helps - in that I can sort by date and then thread, and get the behaviour I want. But it doesn't solve the underlying problem.
"This is how it's always been" is true of many things, including a load of long-standing bugs. It doesn't make it necessarily right. Has anyone come up with a reason why people might ever want to sort by the date/time a file has arrived in a folder? Or might (without the hint of the column being present) even *guess* that this is what's going on? Do we know of any other mailers that behave that way?
The default sort should be by the date on the mail, not by order received.
