I always have to remember to sort "in reverse" to get them forward, and when coming out of a newsgroup that is completely read, it sometimes goes up, and not down. In other words, the display as it puts them in my *Groups* list is backwards from the order they are in .newsrc. This behaviour started with 5.8.0. I reported it once, but the bug report must have been tagged "it's coming from that famous felon guy... maybe it's not important". :) -- Randal L.
