            Bug ID: 324122
           Summary: when messages are displayed in thread view and sorted
                    by date, new messages don't show up at the top of the
                    list
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.11
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: message list
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

If the message list is set to show messages in thread view and the messages are
sorted by date, the sorting is done after the first message of the thread, thus
making the new messages very hard to find if they are in an old thread.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set View Aggregation to Standard mail list
2. Set sorting to Date/Time
3. Have a few mail threads
4. Receive new mail in those threads
Actual Results:  
The new messages are very hard to locate, because the list is sorted by the
date of the first message in the thread, not the last.

Expected Results:  
The thread should be moved at the top of the list. The sorting should be done
by the date of the last message in the thread.

As an example of this functionality, you can try the same thing in Mozilla
Thunderbird.
