Description Chris Horn 2003-06-28 00:03:28 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.2)
OS:          Linux

I couldn't find a duplicate wish request (I did look), although I saw mention that there was such a wish already out there.  It would be nice if you could change the default sort order for folders - as well as set the sort order for all folders in one fell swoop.
Comment 1 Matthieu Pupat 2004-02-09 19:11:32 UTC 
Furthermore kmail sometimes looses the sort order and sorts by date (order of arrival) which is quite annoying.

This functionnality would be very nice to get out of that mess.
Comment 2 Jens 2004-02-12 13:04:15 UTC 
I second this wish. I would like to specify a global sort ordering as well.

Thanks!
Comment 3 Yaroslav Kolomiyets 2004-07-09 15:20:39 UTC 
I join this wish too. I'd vote for!
Comment 4 Justus Ranvier 2007-03-23 04:18:51 UTC 
Any chance this will get into KDE 4?
Comment 5 Thomas McGuire 2009-08-20 00:51:04 UTC 
In KMail starting with KDE 4.2, you can configure global and per-folder sort-orders, although the UI for that is a bit clumsy.
