This update is a big step towards resolving https://community.getmailspring.com/…t/custom-email-sorting/470 ---- The update brings some basic sort functionality to the thread (including search results). As I'm limited by the DB, you only have `date` and `subject`, `from` and `size` would require some extra fields (`unread` is possible, though we already have the unread "folder") Currently the feature remembers the `order` and implements it when you switch folders or restart the app. --- Q. This seems almost redundant as, after the first sort swap, it will never be triggered again. Maybe have the new setting set by default? Then this can be removed https://github.com/glenn2223/Mailspring/blob/5b9493f87cef86c573593455844d330472d49e70/app/src/mailbox-perspective.ts#L412-L414 Q. Not sure about the naming of the new "setting" Q. Where do we stand on increasing the sort by options?
