Version: 1.2.4 (enterprise 20071221.751182) (using 3.5.8 "release 33.2" , openSUSE ) Compiler: Target: x86_64-suse-linux OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.22.16-0.1-default I sort my mails by date. In this dir he sorts mails by name,date and not only by date.. see attachment for more..

This works fine for me. Maybe you have threading for messages enabled, or the message dates are wrong. Try the other date sorting options.
Now, I can reproduce it. Click on sort by subject (down), click on sort by name (down), 2 clicks on sort by date, click on sort by name and 2 clicks on sort by date (the newest mail at first) now it's sorted by name,date :)
btw I don't have threading messages
I can still not reproduce this problem.
i can confirm that on svn trunk r817136 (~4.1-beta)
ping.. the same in rc1 :(
Created attachment 27123 [details] another screenshot wrong order and with also a wrong date 2106... I click on this message it changes the date to the correct one. This folder is an kde3-mail folder. Refresh index doesn't help.
vperic confirmed this on KMail from 4.1.1 with the provided step-by-step instructions.
Similar problem here Debian Sid AMD64 with Kmail 1.10.1 under KDE 4.1.2. I followed the provided step-by-step instructions, but the resulted sort is not name, date but something different (and very strange).
What is the situation with the new kmail interface existing since kde 4.2?
works for me since some months.
