I think changes need to be made, certainly.

For me the absolute BEST sorting method is that done in
the SouthSide companion product PMINews: the dialog box
allows you to sort Subject, Date, Time, From .... in either ascending
or descending order -- _individually_ selected for each item -- and
then move each up or down in the priority box. 
   ==> Completely configurable
