Do you have server side sorting enabled?

Taking a brief look at the SquirrelMail code, it uses the From: field in
the email to do the sorting, and not the Return-Path.  If you have server
side sorting On, then it's an issue with dovecot... if you have it Off,
then I'd like to see a more indepth example, including the complete from
header (names changed if you need to), and an example of an IMAP fetch on
that same email.
