thre is a "Grouped By Sort" label for today, yesterday, last week, etc.

there is no such label for emails with a upcoming/future date. i know that this should normally not happen (what about "tomorrow" for emails originating from a different timezone?) but can happen with spam.

(see picture that will get attached)

i vote for a "future" label for this case.

Reproducible: Always

This bug has nothing to do with bug 454829 - sort and summary are two completely different things.

mark, as far as i understand bug 454829, it is some kind of "meta bug" / "master ticket" that is referencing (all) other threading/selection issues.

so imho, "summary" should be taken literally as in "condensed presentation" and not like the feature that previews multiple emails in the preview-pane. but i'll ask ;)
