Description Danny Auble 2011-06-27 21:58:35 UTC
Version:           2.1.0 (using KDE 4.6.4) 
OS:                Linux

This really isn't a bug, but more of a feature request.

I would like to be able to group messages by subject and then sort them by date so the most recent is on top.

Threading sort of gives me this with the inverse of the sorting.

The problem I have with Threading the the tree structure.  If a thread is very long and contains a bunch of branches pretty soon it is very hard to figure out where the most recent message is found.

It would be nice to have the thread with no indention and sorted just by the date with no respect to where the message is in the tree of the thread.

Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
The messages grouped together by subject/thread with no tree structure, sorted by date with the most recent on top.
