In 2013, one of the develors said: "At one time Balsa would rethread on every mailbox change, and it was intrusive, so it was decided to defer it; evidently, it's now deferred too long! One issue is that it's difficult to rethread in a sub-thread because of the display interactions. We need to revisit that."I think it simply hasn't been revisited yet. Not sure how to push it higher on the list, unless one of the developers happens to be interested.Well, I guess replacing libesmtp is more important right now -- that concerns core functionality, the sorting is a minor issue in this light.
Well, the libesmtp replacement is in for testing... I'm not sure if it's really complete, but at least I got no complaints yet. It will be *really* helpful if you check the latest git code and give feedback, about both the smtp functionality and the changed config gui. And I fully agree with you that the broken sorting/threading is really annoying, and should be fixed! Such an important issue being postponed for 3 or 4 years is not acceptable.
I'm sure patches would be welcome, but it's a bit beyond my abilities.Beyond mine, too, I'm afraid. Getting new versions and complaining (i.e. writing bug reports) is what I could do. :-)
For me too. I didn't write the code, and I don't know who actually added (or disabled) it. Maybe Peter knows more? Peter, are you listening? Cheers, Albrecht.
