Hm.  I guess to me "sortm" defaulting to "all" makes sense; I mean,
don't you want to that the vast majority of the time?  (I'm guessing
"lp" is a sequence you created?).  And I guess I always figured the
order of messages was ephemeral; that's why sortm exists, after
all.

But I can't claim to be the arbiter of how people use nmh; what do others
think?
