Mmm... you mean something like Thunderbird/Icedove or Evolution do?
If my memory serves me well, these put the latest updated thread at the
top, regardless the date of original posting. I don't think this can be
customized in Pan but I'm using an old version (0.132), so this may have
changed :-?

Thunderbird/Icedove or Evo ;-P

Mmm, I prefer the Pan way... I find it a more logical approach (or maybe
is that I finally got accustomed to it). Anyway, I think that this should
be fully configurable by the user.
