[ I sent this only to Johan, re-sending to the rest of the people now. Sorry Johan for the dupe ] I discussed this with a pine user in #git and we concluded (looking at the respective code) that both Mutt and Pine generate correct filenames based on when that mail arrived to the Maildir. I use Mutt, and to test it I picked a thread that didn't arrive in order, tagged and copied it to a different Maildir, patches were splitted in correct order. - ferdy -- Fernando J.
