Thanks, that will do!

Another question: I want my inbox folder to be always sorted in reverse, that
is to show the newest messages on top. I can manually do it by hitting "S" and
selecting "!number". It's still surprising though that the next new messages
still appear at the bottom, so I have to re-sort every time. And it's quite
slow also, every time "sorting" and then "inserting" all of my thousands
messages. Am I doing it wrong?


Thanks in advance,
