Hello,

I have been using Kmail for some time now, and I keep noticing that the sort
option named "By Date/Time of Most Recent in Subtree" takes too long to finish
sorting the e-mails (obviously, I'm talking about a huge mail folder, with more
the 10 thousand messages).  Usually, it takes about 5 or 6 minutes to sort
everything, and it's really annoying wait until it's finished.

I really don't know if this can algorithm be improved (I was going to take a
look in the code, but had no time until now), but I believe that it's an
important feature and it would be good to have a small delay to use it.

Thank you.
