According to this: https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/eintr/Site_002dwide-Init.html maybe you should put it in default.el, which .emacs won't overwrite. Worth a try. Question: Why does sort not work on articles when thread view is toggled off? Also is there a variable that assures that the most recently posted article will always be at top of summary buffer? I would like this behavior for all groups.
