Subject: Root problem for sorting the summary buffer
Date: Fri, 04 Apr 2008 10:18:09 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87sky29gou.fsf@mundaneum.com> (raw)
Hello,
I've always had a problem regarding the sorting of articles in
the newsgroups.
Look at this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Q 1970-01-01 01:00 0.0k Re: Using `eval-expression'
R.+ Lennart Borgman 2008-04-03 15:53 2.5k \-> ...
R. Thierry Volpiat 2008-04-03 15:58 3.6k \-> ...
R. Nikolaj Schumac 2008-04-03 20:45 2.2k \-> ...
R. weber 2008-04-03 23:11 1.9k \-> ...
R. reader@newsguy. 2008-04-03 14:52 2.4k \-> ...
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The poster's mail is presented as the last one of the list, with
all the answers being then correctly sorted (in chronological
order, from top to bottom).
What I logically want is:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

I thought I had correctly set up Gnus therefore:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; sorting the summary buffer
(setq gnus-thread-sort-functions
'((not gnus-thread-sort-by-most-recent-number)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
What's wrong with this?
Best regards and many thanks for your help,
Seb
