Hi all,
Speaking of sorting, it it possible to sort threads and messages like that?
(A to J representing messages from the oldest to the last received)
A
|->D
  |->E
  |->J
|->G
B
|->C
  |->F
  |->I
|->H
(A,D,E,G,J) is the thread with the last received message, therefore it's
displayed on top. Inside a thread, messages are sorted chronologically. This is
the order which is used on Gnome mailing-list web interface, see:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2009-February/thread.html
Currently, I'm using:
set sort = threads
set sort_aux = reverse-last-date-received
but I'm not pleased with it because it will sort the previous example like that:
A
|->G
|->D
  |->J
  |->E
B
|->H
|->C
  |->I
  |->F
As I still want to have the first message of the thread on top of the
thread, I can't use reverse-thread.
Cheers,
