Back on sorting problem, I have done proper analysis and now I know exactly what's wrong, even if I don't know why.
I have checked message order in the fetch log, to see what was the exact order in which the messages were retrieved from the pop3 server, then I cross-checked the order in which messages are displayed in the folders. I have discovered that when I sort by received date in ascending order (with the newest on top), which is the sorting order I like to use, messages get sorted this way: - on top there are the messages that have been received in the same minute (even in different seconds), but sorted from the first that was received from pop3 to the last. This is wrong, since I have chosen an ascending order, so the last fetched should be on top, instead of the first. - going down, there are messages that were received in different minutes, correctly sorted in ascending order from top to bottom, newest to oldest. So, the issue is that even if I sort in ascending order, where newest messages should be on top, when messages are received from pop3 server in the same minute they get sorted in descending (wrong) order. You can see the screenshot that shows messages received in the same minute got sorted the wrong way (oldest to newest). I don't know why, but the first message of the group that was fetched at 09:54 got sorted in the right order (it's the highlighted one), while all the rest got sorted in the wrong order. I am sure that older versions (maybe 2.x?) did not show this behaviour. Hope this helps identifying the bug. -- Fabio "Kurgan" Muzzi Using The Bat! v3.5.30 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 4
