Subject: What is "sort by date" supposed to do?
Date: 23 Dec 1999 07:15:38 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m34sd9yhsl.fsf@serpent.local> (raw)
It doesn't seem to sort the older messages before the newer ones.
This morning in rec.music.early, I have:
R [ 22: Andrys D Basten ] Re: Bartoli's Vivaldi/Perlman-Argerich CD
R [ 23: tlsterry@tpgi.com.au] Re: Bartoli's Vivaldi
where the first of these is:
From: andrys@netcom.com (Andrys D Basten)
Subject: Re: Bartoli's Vivaldi/Perlman-Argerich CD
Newsgroups: rec.music.opera,rec.music.classical.recordings,rec.music.early

and the second is:
From: tlsterry@tpgi.com.au
Subject: Re: Bartoli's Vivaldi
Newsgroups: rec.music.opera,rec.music.classical.recordings,rec.music.early

I was hoping that what the xemacs misc=>sort=>Sort by Date (^C^S^D)
menu item would do is sort articles entirely by date, ignoring any
threading. Obviously, this isn't what's happening. Is this a bug or
a feature, and if the latter, is there a way to get the feature I
want?
This is xemacs 21.1, gnus 5.8.2.
