I tried again. With both Gnus 5.11 and current No Gnus (CVS, trunk), the threads are sorted ascending (WRT the most recent number of a posting in each thread). I checked the article numbers in summary buffer mode line. But you may prepend `gnus-summary-line-format' with "%N" for debugging. ,---- | ELISP> gnus-summary-line-format | "%N %U%R%z%I%(%[%4L: %-23,23f%]%) %s\n" | ELISP> gnus-thread-sort-functions | ((not gnus-thread-sort-by-most-recent-number)) | | ELISP> gnus-version | "Gnus v5.11" `---- This is what I get with this (minimal .emacs / .gnus.el files): ,---- | 1538 [ 45: Glyn Millington ] Can't send mail with Em | 1550 [ 32: Glyn Millington ] | 1551 [ 57: Reiner Steib ] | 1553 [ 10: Bastien ] gnus-topic-line-format | 1558 [ 27: Leo ] Re: A few questions on | 1560 [ 12: Daiki Ueno ] | 1561 [ 31: Leo ] | 1562 [ 27: Daiki Ueno ] | 1564 [ 32: Jarmo Hurri ] Simple thread sorting q | 1565 [ 24: Reiner Steib ] | 1557 [ 38: Slackrat ] Gnus Gurus?

Try to reproduce it with a minimal configuration.

Create a different user account? That's option 1. Option 2 is to create a new home directory for this Emacs session: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- emacs_test=~/path/to/my/emacs_test mkdir -p $emacs_test cd $emacs_test ln -s ~/.Xauthority . HOME=$PWD emacs & --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- The .emacs and .gnus.el files in $emacs_test should only contain minimal settings (e.g. `load-path' for Gnus, `gnus-select-method'). Option 3 is to set `gnus-home-directory' to the value of $emacs_test within Emacs before loading ~/.gnus.el or maybe better start from "emacs -q". ----------------- Bye, Reiner. -- ,,, (o o) ---ooO-(_)-Ooo--- | PGP key available | http://rsteib.home.pages.de/ _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
