However, I don't know why, but Microsoft, IMHO, has severely overlooked the
threading. Once you select the messages to be threaded, they are all sorted
by the subject! What a stupid idea! I would like to have the threads sorted
by the date the first message in the thread was sent, but nope, you can't do
that. If it wasn't for that, Entourage would be near perfect for email, for
me at least...
