How long you've had them is beside the point. The point is that folder hooks are only triggered when you *ENTER* a directory. So, if you have the following in your muttrc: set sort=date folder-hook . 'set sort=threads' Then when you view your inbox, it'll be sorted by threads, but if you source your muttrc while viewing your inbox, it'll suddenly be sorted by date until you re-open your inbox. That's the expected behavior. Think of it this way: mutt reads your muttrc (sort=date) mutt opens your inbox (hook triggered, sort=threads) you tell mutt to re-read the muttrc (sort=date) you tell mutt to re-open your inbox (hook triggered, sort=threads) ~Kyle - -- I have always found that mercy bears richer fruits than strict justice. -- Abraham Lincoln -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Thank you for using encryption! iEYEARECAAYFAkhVco0ACgkQBkIOoMqOI15Z8QCfawy6QvYqUxIid8a7VtSqskB8 xg8AmwTv562gON+a5c0Z2V78tFxVISkP =wZqC -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
