Subject: sorting by date
Date: Fri, 25 Nov 2016 06:54:10 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87bmx4123x.fsf@ucl.ac.uk> (raw)

Hello all,

one of my groups consists of emails sent to me by discourse for a
particular mailing list.  For some reason, the emails arrive in a
strange non-date order so sorting by number does not do what I would
want.

For this group, I have tried specifying

(gnus-thread-sort-functions '(gnus-thread-sort-by-date gnus-thread-sort-by-total-score))

in the parameters list for the group.  This does not seem to have any
effect: the emails still appear sorted by number.  Within the group,
invoking C-c C-s C-d (gnus-summary-sort-by-date) does result in the
order I want.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
eric
