On 14 November, 2000, 6:22 PM, I saw Rev.'s comments made on
Tue, 14 Nov 2000 14:43:20 -0600, and thought I'd add my $0.02 worth:
RBBC>>> Threading seems to work fine, except that threads are shown
RBBC>>> unexpanded and when you delete a message, instead of going to
RBBC>>> the next message in the thread, it goes to the top message of
RBBC>>> the next thread, so I gave up on threading.
Really? I have threading by references enabled here and I sort by
received time in *descending* order. When I delete a message in a thread
I'm moved to the next message. This is with the Halloween Edition
version that you're using. The messages are always in the right order
as I read from one message to the next unread message in the thread.

RBBC> Nope. In fact, when I did that, I see my question as a child of your
RBBC> answer.
You have to select sort by -> received time *and* sort by -> descending
order.
RBBC> Messages in other threads on this list are also out of order.
RBBC> Ditto when I set the sort to sent time (which I believe might be
RBBC> likelier to give the desired result).
Sent time depends on a valid system clock time on the part of the sender
which is too often incorrect. The received time poses less of a problem
so I use it instead. In fact I have no problem with it at all.
RBBC> And when you click on the trashcan icon on a message in a thread,

Not my experience here at all. Hmmm.
RBBC> Now, I don't know about you, but when I've finished reading a message

RBBC> message in the same thread.
Yes and here, I'm moved to the next message in the thread. If I'm at the
end of a thread, I'm moved to the first message in the next thread. What
hasn't been fixed is the delete entire thread behaviour. We're still
being taken to the beginning of the message list instead of being moved
to the next thread after the deleted one.
