   With "[x]   Show newest messages on top of list" ..you can be fairly     
   confident that the first message by Gert Andersen was the last one (most     
   recent by date) he wrote.   
      
   So, even if you had something like this:

   The original list (by virtue of sort order) would be the same as the very     
   first one at the beginning of this message.   
      
   Is the :SS included in the PKT?  (I don't know). Maybe there isn't enough     
   data to sort by the second either.  So, OXP sorts by HH:MM as best it can?
