You were looking in the right place.  What distro is this?  You should have, 
in the General section,

Show Quick Search
Display message sizes
Show crypto icons
Show attachment icon
Threaded messge list

You should also have a section called 'Threaded Message List Options'.

Nothing wrong - you just haven't got it organised as you want.  If you don't 
have the option as described above, see if you can set it from the Folders 
menu in the main screen.  You'll have to do it for every folder where it 
matters to you, but it should work.

Then, when threading is off, click on the Date field header.  It's a toggle 
switch for Ascending and Descending sort.  You can use the Folder threading 
switch to temporarily switch threading on if you need to refer back to earlier 
in the thread, then go back to your preferred method.

The reason I love kmail so much is that it is possible to work in pretty well 
any way that suits you :-)  HTH
