Re: [Evolution] Sorting by "unread"

[kiwirider777 gmail com]

Installation is default as of this morning (I'd not installed it on this 
machine before today).

With Thunderbird, when I set up a new mail folder (whether the inbox of 
a new account or some other folder). I first click the Date header to 
sort by date, then I click the "sort by read" column

I've put a couple of screenshots at https://postimg.cc/gallery/KYshgKM 
to show what I am referring to.

With the workflow I've developed over the last however many years I've 
been using Thunderbird (at least 9), this is quite useful to me. I don't 
have the ability to remember to do things like changing views, which is 
why I am stuck on TB since it lets me see all my unread stuff at the top 
of the list, then everything else in date order below that. At a single 
glance as I walk past the screen I can see if there is anything to take 
care of that I may have forgotten, rather than having to remember to 
change screens for whatever else may be there.
