Threaded mail issues
A couple of issues regarding the threaded view, which I tried out.Often threads are forked, people reply on a older message instead of starting a new mail.
Forked threads often have a different subject, that isn't shown in the new Opera layout.
In forked threads it's often difficult to find the latest email, because it can be `hidden` somewhere in the different forks. (It's not the first or last in a list).
I can't click a date header any more, to sort mails in a thread, which would be a nice addition, although in not forked threads it seems unnecessarily.
Anyone else having these issues?

The forked thread should be shown nested inside the parent thread. The subject won't show if you're using "list and message on right" though because of the new design. If you use the other layouts it should work as you're used to.
Or, you can fix it by setting Mail View Two Lined Messages to 0.
That will also give you back the columns to sort by. But, you don't need those. There's a wrench icon where you can change the global settings including layout and sorting and grouping. There's also another wrench icon where you can set the "show" settings for a view and override the global sorting options just for a view.
