Marck, thanks for your reply.

What you suggest is essentially what I have been doing. But I read into
your original remark more than was there; namely that one could have
truly independent column/sort settings for unthreaded vs. threaded (of
various kinds) folders, without selecting the threading mode as one
entered each folder. Apparently not so.

Perhaps this will address some of these issues. Or perhaps wishful
thinking...   :)
