I totally agree, i have had this discussion with Alec before when I suggested to use a SORT(ARRIVAL). But Alec then had a convincing argument why it couldnt be used. Possibly this was waiting for the implemention of index_sort? In which case maybe now it can be used?
"arrival sort" is better than implemented "index sort", but:
- I'm not really sure if "SORT(ARRIVAL)" is faster than "SORT(DATE)"
on every IMAP server implementation,
Probably not. On dovecot it is.
- "arrival sort" will be very slow on servers without SORT capability
(as it was before index_sort implementation).
I really don't know what "arrival sort" has in common with threading.
Nothing I think. You cant do this for threaded views obviously. So im
also interested what Chris actually means on an imap server command
level when he talks about unsorted threaded view. Maybe show an actual
imap server command log Chris?
