Yes, but I still believe RimArts performs the same thing in a much cleaner manner. I will post a PNG on TBOT (which I will have to re-join) to show you what I mean. Trying view by references with TB I am finding myself constantly having to click the little boxes with pluses in them, and it requires a certain amount of fiddling with the size of the "Message Flag" icon. Mind you, that is more a reflection of my small screen...which also in part explains why I prefer the way Becky handles it.

Mails without a date are from today. But this not a problem.

I think it is generally accepted that within a thread, the newest postings are at the bottom; Starts with the original posting followed by the Replies in chronological order. You can view threads by 'Subject' or 'References' if sorted by Date, but the view by references is a little clunky because TB will shove your entire columns heading right off the right side of the screen. I wish RITLabs would look at the way Becky handles this and do something similar. > One thing that is puzzling me...the Received time sometimes shows > the date aswell...why only sometimes? And can this cause problems > when sorting? No, it doesn't cause any sorting problems. You can control that behaviour under Options/Preferences/Message List. Just uncheck the two boxes that allow for a different time/date display for messages arriving on the current day or week.
