can't get mail in leopard to sort by date properly

[mrklaw]

Hi

Recently upgraded to leopard and am having trouble with mail. my inboxes (both Gmail IMAP) insist on showing mails in reverse date order, most recent at the bottom. Even if I click the column header to sort so the most recent is at the top, it reverts back the next time I highlight that inbox.

Is there any way to get it to stick so that the most recent item is at the top? Had a look through preferences and couldn't see anything. I don't remember this being an issue with Tiger.

when I first set the account up it sorted oldest first. All I did was click the date column to reverse the order and it's stayed like that since. This is GMail over IMAP
