Description

[Peter Spitzer]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0

Preset sorting criteria of virtual folder ("saved search") is ignored. Instead
new received emails are sorted by 'Folder'.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Precondition:
a) a virtual folder ("saved searched") is existing;
b) sort criteria in this folder is set to "by date".

Steps to Reproduce:
1. active folder is 'Inbox'
2. get new mail (including criteria of virtual folder)
3. enter virtual folder
4. see sort criterea is still set to "by date" but (new received) emails are
sorted by 'Location'

Actual Results:  
Work around: click on 'Date'(twice) and sorting order is ok again.

Expected Results:  
Automatically sort emails by preset criteria after entering virtual folder after
receiving new mails.

Detected with Thunderbird version 0.9 (20041103) on WinXP system.
