I'll contact him.  The server has thousands of users... perhaps he disabled
indexing for performance.

Mozilla can sort it but it's too slow for my taste (and I have a fast
workstation).  Also, I like mutt reasons other than performance so I won't
change for just this... I can manually sort and delete if I must.

There must be another way to sort IMAP mail if Mozilla can do it.

Have you heard of any other mutt-compatible software which can filter IMAP
mail?  Or could you please provide an alternate way of sorting for non-indexed servers?
