Package: evolution
Version: 2.12.2-1
Severity: normal
Previous to upgrading to Evolution v2.12.2, sorting by subject in e-mail
view worked as expected. Sorting by BLANK, other, numbers, alphabetical,
foreign characters.
Upon upgrading to evolution 2.12.2-1, 2007-DEC-10, I do not even get some
semblance of *SANE* sorting.
IOW, I get it any dang way it pleases. Some Foreign Languages intermixed
in with English, even ascii sorting is broken. Sure I get grouping when
I get 50 messages all beginning with the same 5 letters (or might be
more I get "logwatch" and other systems messages from hundreds of
machines)
The sorting when using subject feels like a mixture of Date, whom sent
and encoding.
I've not changed my locale from the listed version for a few years.
FYI, since I get many (a good thousand needing redirection) messages a day
I need to either forward on to apropos persons or handle myself, sorting
by subject *USED* to be optimal, but as of right now... it taking about
40% more time than it used to.
If you need more info, please let me know.
