Unwanted feature of threaded view seems to be the default now?! View->sort>unthread makes the threaded messages disappear, until threaded again.

How to go back to the way it was?

Hello

Are you really saying that the view changes by itself from unthreaded to threaded ? I have never seen this and can't imagine how it could happen; do you have more details on how it happens ?

Yes, that is what he is saying. I have changed mailnews.default_view_flags to 0 and set the View -> Sort by to unthreaded and this morning, all on its own Thunderbird decided to change the sort by to threaded.
