You have to be sure that your server supports all sort/thread commands that can be issued by SquirrelMail. Some servers support sorting only in us-ascii charset. SquirrelMail can use more than 16 different charsets. If your server does not support some charset used by user, interface will become unusable after changing sort order. -- Tomas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!
