Mozilla T-Bird UIsers

Just a bit of help please.
How do I set Thunderbird newsfroups to open showing the latest posts at
the top of the list and to NOT expand the longest thread automatically?
Mozilla did this and it's getting on my tits.
There's no setting that allows such changes.

Anyone know?

Cheers

 

No, but if anyone finds out I'd love to know too. I have it set to sort
by date, folded threads and only show threads with unread. But the
cunting thing always opens a huge thread from a few days ago, for
unknown reasons.

 

Yup. Irritating, isnt it?... but its a thousand times better than
outpuke express...

 

On the Mac version, I just go into the View menu and select 'Sort by...'
and choose Order Recieved and Descending. It works just fine here.

Just checked the Unix version, and that doesn't have the option to
display threaded *and* sorted by descending recieved order. However, if
you click on the header tab for the thread column it'll sort either
descending or ascending as you prefer - indeed the same works for any
column.

 

Which manages to not open unvited huge threads from a few days ago.

I Don't use Mozilla for news but for everything else it's fab.
