Advance sorting and filter options

[upsilonice]

I wanted to delete all unread messages. Little did I know that Thunderbird only allows us to sort all read messages in ascending or descending order. This means that if I select all messages at once, I might delete all the read messages along with the unread ones. This is just an example of read/unread messages. Now think about all the sorting options where I want to filter multiple circumstances, here in these situations, things might get a little too difficult.

Hence, an advanced sorting and filter option is indeed a needed feature for all Thunderbird platforms.

Perhaps use the quick filter toolbar (Ctrl+Shift+K) to set your view to only unread message before you start sorting.
