[MlMt] Three questions: signature on new email (doesn't work?), quick filters (/a la/ Thunderbird), filter order

[Robert Brenstein]

Re 1: somebody answered that already. Note that signatures are inserted 
automatically only when the current email address of the sender matches 
the address in the signature definition.

Re 2. double-click or shift double-click (depending how you set the 
“double click” option for the viewer) the subject in the list view 
and you will see only emails with that subject. This works also for 
sender and date. you can modify or add additional filter criteria on the 
blue filter strip that shows up above the list.

Re 3. the search results are sorted using the sort for the mailbox. by 
default, search switches to searching the inbox which might have a 
different sorting that your other mailboxes, causing your confusion. you 
may want to use the little triangle next to the magnifying glass in the 
search box to set the search scope to the current mailbox.
