Order in which messages are downloaded from server and stored in TB!s
message database. That would be "don't sort" setting or "sort by place
in database". Simplest of all. It shouldn't be _that hard_ to
implement, would it? :)
Additionaly, you _can_ see when message arrived on server. Here's
cut&paste from received headers and dates from your messages (as it
arrived to me):

Look at first and second received line - server1.ouroboros.hr is my
mail server. I'm not an expert, but isn't 23:10:11 time when my server
received your message? Simply looking at the date and time of first
received line in message should do it.

Eudora. By default, messages are not sorted (or, they're "sorted as
placed in database") - and then eventually you can sort them by time.
I don't know which time (received?) but I don't remember any problems
with sorting messages in Eudora. In TB! I'm never quite sure.
And when I accidentaly delete message, it's a pain to find it again -
in Eudora, I simply switched to Trash and checked the message at the
bottom of the list.
