Yes, you have to invert the predicate. Here's what I use:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq gnus-thread-sort-functions
'(gnus-thread-sort-by-number
(not gnus-thread-sort-by-most-recent-date)
gnus-thread-sort-by-total-score))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
With this setup I get this behavior:
- Threads with higher score appear on top of the summary
- Threads with equal score appear sorted by date, e.g.
newer threads are below older ones
- Inside threads newer articles come before older ones
Bye,
Tassilo
