Thank you for your response. I was able to customize Gnus to display threads sorted by number, and then in reverse order by date, with the following addition to my .gnus.el file: > ; Sort threads first by number, and then in reverse order by date > (setq gnus-thread-sort-functions > '(gnus-thread-sort-by-number > (not gnus-thread-sort-by-date))) Apparently, the argument "REVERSE" doesn't work; instead, one needs to specify "not" followed by the sorting option; e.g., "not gnus-thread-sort-by-date" instead of "gnus-thread-sort-by-date &optional REVERSE". -- Benjamin L.
