Re: Beginner needs help sorting email: neomail list-serve

Auto-sorting the inbox wouldn't really be an ideal thing with the way 
that NeoMail functions -- too many users also use POP3 to access their 
mail -- the minute NeoMail sorted the message out of the mail spool. 
they wouldn't be able to get at it via POP3 -- that's why  I never 
implemented it.  the solution would be to have NeoMail's inbox get 
generated by reading the mail spool, but not BE the mail spool.  Just 
wasn't the design direction I went in, in that I wanted the inbox to be 
synonymous with the mail spool and therefore allow users to delete 
messages from the spool before needing to download them.
