Hi Reiner,

I am not 100% sure either, but I think Michal means that he wants all
threads to be pushed down to the bottom of the thread list when they get
new `unseen' messages added to their tree view.

This way, if there are two threads in the summary of a group like these
two recent threads of comp.unix.solaris:

and a new post arrives for the `overcommit' thread, the threads should
be slightly rearranged to look like this:

HTH,

PS: I've _very_ recently switched to Gnus for all my email needs.  Once
more.  There have been a couple of failed attempts in the past, but I
wasn't really familiar enough with Gnus and I was afraid of losing
massive amounts of email if I misconfigured it.

`THANK YOU!' to all the people who have worked to bring us Gnus :)
