Hi Paul,
i've recreated your test case, and the '-limit 0' test still gives
reverse date sort:
$ s
1 Thu, 03 Oct 2012 00:12:00 +0000 A
2 Thu, 02 Oct 2012 00:12:00 +0000 A
3 Thu, 02 Oct 2012 00:12:00 +0000 C
4 Thu, 01 Oct 2012 00:12:00 +0000 B
5 Thu, 01 Oct 2012 00:12:00 +0000 A
$ sortm -textf subject -limit 0
$ s
1 Thu, 03 Oct 2012 00:12:00 +0000 A
2 Thu, 02 Oct 2012 00:12:00 +0000 A
3 Thu, 01 Oct 2012 00:12:00 +0000 A
4 Thu, 01 Oct 2012 00:12:00 +0000 B
5 Thu, 02 Oct 2012 00:12:00 +0000 C
so that's odd.
I see the "A"s maintained their original relative positions. What if
you swap messages 2 and 5 to start with? Do you then get 0{3,1,2} Oct?
Cheers, Ralph.
