Description Alan Jenkins 2008-10-06 14:26:35 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

The Knode "subscribe to newsgroup" dialogue includes a list of newsgroups in alphabetical order.  Moderated newsgroups are marked with (m).  The "(m)" is incorrectly taken into account when sorting.

As an example, try subscribing to the GMANE.ORG feed for the linux kernel mailing list.  You will see the following sort order:

gmane.linux.kernel.lsm (m)
gmane.linux.kernel (m)
gmane.linux.kernel.mentors (m)

The correct sort order would put the gmane.linux.kernel newsgroup above all of it's subgroups.

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug.
