Overview: Sort a column in the Address Book using the classic skin and the 
column sort indicator does not appear.

Steps to reproduce: 
1. In Mail, switch from the Modern to the Classic skin
2. Open the Address Book
3. Select an address book that has a variety of entries
4. Select a column (Name, Email, Wok Phone...) and a sort should occur

Actual Results: Notice that no sort indicator appears in the column header.
Expected Results: A sort indicator should appear in the column header. 

Additional Information
- Using the Modern skin displays a sort indicator.
Another observation:
- After switching from Classic to Modern, now the column sort indicators don't 
appear. After exiting and restarting then the column sort indicators reappear.

The sort arrow now appears, but I don't think clicking on a column always causes 
a sort.  It appears that an entry must be selected in order for the sort to 
work.  I'll look into this.

Marking worksforme as the sort indicators show up. The selection issue should be
a separate bug, since the sort indicators do show up regardless.

Reopening. I don't see the column sort indicators in the Address Book using the

Setting depends. I believe these are the same issue...
Will revisit when 25984 see's some traction.
Depends on: 25984
The sort indicators show up on windows (2001-01-12-06-Mtrunk).

Sending to Seth - as per our talk.  Looks like there might be a packaging issue
- or perhaps just a mac issue...

not address book specific.

damn, now I'm seeing them!
on first launch, or if switch skins, they go away.

if exit and restart, then they come back!

nbaca, is that what you see?

When I create a new profile I can see the sort indicators in the first session.
After an exit/restart then they disappear. Even after switching themes I never
see them again. This happens in 3-pane and Address Book.
thanks nbaca for the info.

pavlov, is this your bug?

We really need to get these showing. Seth or pavlov, do you think this needs to
be reassigned?
I don't think this is ours (mailnews).

the column indicators do show up (on official builds) after the first run.
so it's not a packaging problem.

not sure who owns this, though.
I never see the indicators on the official build nor do I see them on any of the
trees(address book, bookmarks, thread pane).  I'm pretty sure this is a dup of
another bug we used to have and I have a feeling I'm about to start reassigning
wars again.  But, since it's happening on all tree columns, my first start is
hyatt for help on this.

Presumably this is a skin issue.

This started working for me in the modern skin yesterday.  I hadn't seen sort
indicators in a long time.  Are others still missing the indicators?
As I mentioned in bug# 25984:

"FYI:
Build 2001-05-15-04: WinMe
Build 2001-05-15-08: Mac 9.04
Build 2001-05-15-08: Linux (scalkin's system)

- Existing profiles (win, mac, linux)
I'm seeing the column indicators in the thread pane and Address Book using
Modern and Classic.

- New profiles (win, mac)
I'm seeing the column indicators in the thread pane and Address Book using
Modern and Classic. Can't try on linux due to a crash when creating new 
profiles."
