I do have server side sorting on.  In fact this is what the general options
screen in conf.pl looks like on my machine.

SquirrelMail Configuration : Read: config.php (1.2.0)
---------------------------------------------------------
General Options
1.  Default Charset           : iso-8859-1
2.  Data Directory            : /var/lib/squirrelmail/prefs/
3.  Attachment Directory      : /var/spool/squirrelmail/attach/
4.  Directory Hash Level      : 0
5.  Default Left Size         : 150
6.  Usernames in Lowercase    : false
7.  Allow use of priority     : true
8.  Hide SM attributions      : false
9.  Allow use of receipts     : true
10. Allow editing of identity : true
11. Allow server thread sort  : true
12. Allow server-side sorting : true
14. Allow server charset search : true

R   Return to Main Menu
C.  Turn color off
S   Save data
Q   Quit

Command >>


As far as I can tell this is simply a case of php having too much to have to
decided how to display.  The only sorting that it the php is doing is to
setup the threaded view html output.  Can my courier-imap do this for it?

Thanks for the help.
