I have one problem with this idea.

I have absolutely no doubt that each of us recieves mail in different 
orders.  I experienced this a LOT while I was running mail from my MCO 
account, and, although I don't see it as much here on KLI (thankfully!), 
I still occassionally see the *response* to someone's letter before I see 
the first post.

Even though you are propsing to do this by dates, I think there would 
still be some confusion... especially if I have to go searching through 
header lines to find the date it was *actually* sent, as opposed to the 
date I happened to receive it.
