Hello,
there is a little bug in Squirrelmail 1.4.5 or Dovecot 1.0.alpha4-1:
the sort is not correct if I use squirrelmail with the option: 10. Allow server thread sort : true 11. Allow server-side sorting : true
with the option on false and with Thunderbird 1.5rc1 there is no problem, but I think Thunderbird 1.5rc1 already does the sort by itself.
I have a folder with 1054 messages, but if I sort (from old to new) them in squirrelmail the newest 3 messages (received after the migration from thunderbird/pop3 to dovecot) are on the first page, before the messages from 5 month ago.
In addition to Tomas' suggestion, you might want to check Options, then Display Preferences, then check the option for "Sort by Received Date". If you have it set to "Yes" try changing it to "No" and see if that helps. As you didn't elaborate as to /how/ you migrated from your pop3 service to dovecot, or if you even changed anything in the back end at all, there is a possibility that you are using the INTERNALDATE of the emails. This date is the date the IMAP server identifies the email by, which is not necessarily the same as the actual date of the email itself if you copied it. ie, if you copy an email from one location to another, and the email is dated say Dec 1st, 2000, the internal date on the email in the new location would be the date/time of the move.
