Re: [CSCMail-Users] Billenium Bug

[Steven K. <st...@re...>]

Ok, fun fun fun...

To fix this, I need to setup a custom sort function to pass to
gtk_clist_set_compare_func()

It'll take me a bit of time because I have to figure out how to do this in the
context of the Perl bindings (it would be trivial in C, but wrappers make
things complex)  I'll see what I can hack together over the weekend.

Also, Gavin: what version of CSCMail are you running?  (I am sure this bug
exists in all versions, but I am curious due to the line number differences you
mention)
