Order problem...
Greetings! I have noticed that when I bring up a folder (using mutt -f x), it is bringing it up and displaying it in an order OTHER than sorted by RECEIVED. It appears that it could be sorting by date by default. I think this is the only folder that this is happening to, as I have about 20 other folders that appear to be working properly. When I hit (o)rder / (r)eceived, it obviously displays them mail like I want. Any ideas as to why this is happening and how I might correct it? Thanks! = Scott A. Davis ! [EMAIL PROTECTED] !

inbox sort order problem
I'm using mbox format, and I have procmail filtering ALL my mail into one of 3 mailboxes - 2 mailing lists get filtered into one mailbox each, and everything else gets filtered into =INBOX-Mutt. I also have these 3 folder-hooks: folder-hook =INBOX-Mutt set sort=reverse_date_received folder-hook =in-l-dbiusers set sort=threads folder-hook =in-l-muttusers set sort=threads Sometimes I notice that when I go into one of the mailing list mailboxes, and then come back to the INBOX-Mutt mailbox that the messages are NOT in the order I specified in the =INBOX-Mutt folder-hook. Is this the way it is supposed to work? My impression is that whenever I go into =INBOX-Mutt the order should be what I specified in the folder-hook. Am I wrong? Thanks. -- Hardy Merrill Mission Critical Linux, LLC http://www.missioncriticallinux.com

I had a smiliar problem until I moved set sort=[some way] above folder-hook lines.
