Thanks 

I tried 

(setq gnus-thread-sort-functions
      '(not gnus-thread-sort-by-most-recent-date))
;;        '(not gnus-thread-sort-by-date))

(setq gnus-sort-functions
      '(not gnus-article-sort-by-most-recent-date))
;;        '(not gnus-article-sort-by-date))


Or 
(setq gnus-thread-sort-functions
        '(not gnus-thread-sort-by-date))

(setq gnus-sort-functions
        '(not gnus-article-sort-by-date))


But it does not work, for some strange reason gnus does not sort this
message according to its number or date. (But thunderbird does)

Here is a step to step description of how to obtain this (strange
behavior)

1. Set gnus-thread-ignore-subject to nil
2. Go to the last message in a given treat, answer it but change the
   subject. Suppose you have Bcc or CC yourself
3. You answer will then be displayed as

And not as it should be

Could that be a bug?
