I have whined more than once about the imperfection of sorting by
Subject, and I think some of you don't believe me. Hiro suggested using
the View / Sort / Attract by Subject. I notice that after doing that,
there is no mark by "Attract by Subject" to indicate that a change has
occurred.

Today's mail packet provided another instance of imperfect sorting.
Messges with the following two subjects are separated by 8 messages with
other subjects:

Subject: [users] Re: Outline Numbering Changes not retained
Subject: [users] Outline Numbering Changes not retained

I =think= I've found the culprit message that is causing the problem.
Its subject is: 
Subject: RE: [users] Re: Insert a STATIC date in Calc

After the first "Outline" message above, there are 6 messages in
sequence, taking the alphabet from O to R. Then, after the culprit
message, the alphabet goes back to N and then to the O of the second
"Outline" message.
