Want to:

  • Sort email by newest on top
  • Include sub-emails within threads for the newest on top (currently still oldest on top)
  • Apply this default setting to all. I don't want to sort every account, every folder manually. That's too tedious.

Thunderbird has oldest on top. This includes emails within a thread/conversation. Changing the sort to newest on top does not change the emails within the thread/conversation. The sort does not apply to all emails. I find this very annoying.

There is no way to re-sort a thread as the location in the thread and order presented is set by the references stored in the message header and has nothing at all to do with date, only which message it is in reply to

Perhaps just turn off threading. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/message-threading-thunderbird#w_disable-threading-on-a-folder and https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/message-threading-thunderbird#w_changing-default-threading-mode
