Subfolders default to ascending sort

[limp]

I set all my mail folders to descending sort. However, when I create a subfolder in one of these folders, the subfolder always shows ascending sort. Is there any way I can force subfolders to sort in the same order as their parent folders?

I figured it out. To change the default sort order from ascending to descending change the value of mailnews.default_sort_order from 1 (default, ascending) to 2 (descending).
