Hi John,
On 09 December 2000 at 22:14:37 +1100 (which was 11:14 where I
live) John Phillips wrote and made these points:
JP> How do you guys sort your mail?
I *sort* by received (or created) time in descending order.
I *thread* by reference.
JP> All I want is the original mail first, with all replies in order
JP> collapsed under the original heading.
Funny - that's what I see - except where people have written using an
MUA (email program) that doesn't provide reference headers in replies.
JP> What do I have to do the get this %$#@!!! right?
:-) Just the above.
JP> (Seems unnecessarily complicated for Bat!;
I don't think so.
JP> Outofluck Express & Agent both sort quite neatly in this manner)
Agent - yes. Agent does a very good job of this because it includes
subject in the threading analysis as well as the "references" headers.
Outofluck Epress - only threads the News messages. Other good ones are
Ameol and Virtual Access, a couple of UK MUAs which were developed for
a UK conferencing system called CIX.
TB's implementation lacks a good subject threading fallback and fails
when a "reference" thread chain is broken. Still, I find it works well
enough for me.
