That is, the next message in the thread after Joe's 00:57 message is > Joe's 01:14 message, so that should be next. Then all replies to Joe's > 01:14 message are after it, in a subthread. But I'm sure someone would say that the ordering is wrong because the last message is not the newest message as the sort order implies. (I'm not disagreeing with you BTW). But I think the bug here might be the re-ordering after you delete a message. I would have thought there is a case for saying that the tree shouldn't be re-ordered whilst you remain in the folder. I must admit that I find the re-ordering annoying in other circumstances - when a new email is received, the thread will plummet to the bottom of the tree or a branch in a thread will move around. Not annoying enough to do anything about it, but annoying though!
