Details

Sorting on the "Message Size" column in mail is wrong, as it is sorting on the text value instead of the binary number. So, for example, a message of "17KB" sorts before a message of "1KB". To fix this, you should return a RDF integer literal when its requested for sorting (with the magical "?sort=true" appending to the arc in question) on this column.
