I don't seem to have this variable defined? What version of WL are
you using? And what version of Emacs?
I'm using WL 2.15.6 on Emacs 23.1.50.1 on Ubuntu Karmic as well as WL 2.14.1 on
Carbon Emacs 22.3.1 on Snow Leopard
I can use M-x wl-summary-sort-by-date in both
By the way, to sort from Summary view, simply type "S RET" (for date)
Yes, and that's what I do. But I'd like to save myself a keystroke so that the cursor
is already at the latest message. that's why I'm trying to find a way to essentially have
the S-RET done automatically by .wl when I enter summary view

I cannot help you; I have simply got into the habit of immediately
hitting "C-x 1" after "a"...
Thanks. BTW I just noticed that if I press j (so i jump to the message) and then 'a', the new draft message starts
maximized on the frame ...
Thanks!
