Email sort order is different between message listing and message view.

[redgeler]

I have come across a inconsistency in the way in which emails are sorted. Please see the attachment for the cropped screen shots.

In the message listing I have some mail sorted by date. Everything looks fine but.

When I open the first mail. In the lower right navigation control it is indicated as message 2 of 57.

When I open the second mail. In the lower right navigation control it is indicated as message 1 of 57.

I'm guessing that the message listing view is sorted by the "Date" header but the message view order is based upon one of the "Received" headers?

I'm subscribed to a mailing list and this mail is sometimes delayed/delivered later than the "Date" field in the header.

Here are the cut down headers for the mail.
