Clever mailsort in Thunderbird

Hey all,

I've a question concerning mail sorting in Thunderbird and Evolution.

I really liked the way you could choose to sort messages by thread in
Outlook 2003: mails were grouped per subject, and the group with the
newest replies were on top. If someone replies on an old mail, this
group bumps to the top again. Gmail also has this way of sorting as
default.

Is this also possible in Thunderbird?

I tried to get it done, but failed so far. I can get my messages sorted
by thread, but when someone replies to an old mail and this unread mail
nicely gets put under the original. However, the original is not bumped
to the top of the list, making it hard to find it back..

What I have right now:

View > Sort By > Order Received
View > Threads > All
View > Threads > Expand All

Any solution?

Regards,
Arjan .
