Description Tom 2005-12-13 22:32:22 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I would very appreciate if kmail could group mails by date, like Thunderbird or Outlook do:
Today
...
Yesterday 
...
Last Week
...
Last Month

etc.
This would be enormous helpful.

Thanks,
Tom

Try clicking on the date column header...

By clicking on the date column header i can sort it by date. 
But i would like to GROUP it. I would like to seperate mails i got today from mails i got yesterday. In my opinion, if you have ever used this feature (i.e. Thunderbird) you cant work without it again.

I've no idea how grouping by date should look like. Can you please explain 
it and tell me what it makes you feel uncomfortable without it?

Do you know that you can use search folders to show you the messages of e.g. 
yesterday?

Hi Andreas,

bugs #111045 and #107450 have screenshots attached that show this feature in Thunderbird and Outlook.

IMHO this feature is useful when it provides several keys (sender, subject, date) for the grouping and several levels (first date then subject). This is something that is tedious to setup with the search folder feature.

Bye, Christian

Ah, I understand.
