Clarification: email addresses consist of, at minimum, a "formal" delivery address, and are often "decorated" with more meaningful strings which can cause sorting to be mangled. What I'm looking for is to sort on only the formal part of the email address. When viewing only one example as in initial request, it's easy to miss what really happens to the sort when 1000s of messages are sorted. The "decorations" can cause messages from john@doe.com to be interspersed with messages from other people... Ouch... just realized another "decoration" that I use extensively can also affect the proposed sort: john+task@doe.com However, that's a problem for people I send to, not me... :) Yet. HTH set the hidden pref summary_from_show=1 and then you see the email address only and sort on the email address Resolved by setting summary_from_show=1 in clawsrc |
