Unread thread count and sort thread total are available from the column selector widget, but not the Sort by menu item. So, is this sorta fixed?

CCing me and bienvenu@nventure.com bug 72493 has been fixed. Now, time to fix this.
Bug 68903 is listed as dependent on this bug, but I think they're actually dupes (or, more specifically, 68903 is a subset of this bug). Is sorting on the thread fields part of a published spec? If not, this bug should be an enhancement, not a 'major' bug. I suggest that the menu for these thread specific items be a submenu of the View|Sort menu; see also bug 219620, and comments in bug 207766.

(In reply to Wayne Mery (:wsmwk) from comment #13)

I've had a need for this several times. :)

Certainly would be a nice-to-have, but rather P3/5 in my opinion ...

Do you agree with comment 6?

I think so, but Bug 68903 is for SeaMonkey. What's the policy on closing these bugs?

Nice to have - as are most enhancement requests. :)
So labeling P3/5 isn't applicable - that's more relevant to defect reports.

We can leave marking SM bugs to the users operating in that space.
