Yes, VM and Gnus have several ordering methods. VM can change
the physical ordering ordering of messages in the file. Gnus has an
adaptive scoring method that can learn you prclivities and bubble
interesting stuff to the top.
(optional arg makes the following sort in reverse order)
gnus-summary-sort-by-author gnus-summary-sort-by-date
gnus-summary-sort-by-lines gnus-summary-sort-by-number
gnus-summary-sort-by-score gnus-summary-sort-by-subject
VM has even more stuff:
vm-so-sortable-datestring vm-so-sortable-subject
vm-softdata-of vm-sort-compare-author
vm-sort-compare-author-r vm-sort-compare-byte-count
vm-sort-compare-byte-count-r vm-sort-compare-date
vm-sort-compare-date-r vm-sort-compare-line-count
vm-sort-compare-line-count-r vm-sort-compare-physical-order
vm-sort-compare-physical-order-r vm-sort-compare-recipients
vm-sort-compare-recipients-r vm-sort-compare-subject
vm-sort-compare-subject-r vm-sort-compare-thread
vm-sort-compare-xxxxxx vm-sort-messages
vm-sortable-datestring-of vm-sortable-subject-of
Gnus can also limit the messages you see:
/ C gnus-summary-limit-mark-excluded-as-read
/ c gnus-summary-limit-exclude-childless-dormant
/ E gnus-summary-limit-include-expunged
/ t gnus-summary-limit-to-age
/ d gnus-summary-limit-exclude-dormant
/ T gnus-summary-limit-include-thread
/ D gnus-summary-limit-include-dormant
/ * gnus-summary-limit-include-cached
/ v gnus-summary-limit-to-score
/ m gnus-summary-limit-to-marks
/ u gnus-summary-limit-to-unread
/ a gnus-summary-limit-to-author
/ s gnus-summary-limit-to-subject
/ w gnus-summary-pop-limit
/ n gnus-summary-limit-to-articles
/ / gnus-summary-limit-to-subject
Gnus can order the summary buffer any way you want: a
ascii-graphical tree, collopse threads until you read them, buttons
that you can click to expand/contract threads, and more.
