When I have the newest mails on top and the mail list is scrolled to the top it scrolls up when a new mail arrives, i.e. the new mail comes into view. However this doesn't work the same way when I have newest mails at the bottom and the message list is scrolled to the bottom. This isn't very intuitive and since I'm used to have new mails at the bottom it would be nice if this could be fixed.

Steps to reproduce:

- Sort mails by date top down
- Scroll message list all the way down to the newest mail
- Receive new mails -> they are not shown but you have to scroll down to see them
