View Modes, How do I set up view modes
 
I have tried to set up view modes with no success. Some folders I would like to view simply in mail received order, others I would like to view by sender and received time. The setting UseBy seems to do nothing - I have a folder called TBUDL for messages on a mailing list, and I have set up a viewmode called TBUDL and set the UseBy to that folder. When I look at another folder and go back to the TBUDL it has nothing in the UseBy list and uses the same view mode as every other folder.

A simple example of how to make folders display in different ways just by going to that folder would be most welcome.

I am using the latest release 3.5.26
 
How do you pick the view mode?
There are two ways to go:

Folder -> Folder view mode -> pick one

and

Folder -> Properties -> Column setting

I'm always using the first method and I just checked, they weren't the same for my tbudl folder.

I may have cracked it - I assumed the Global View Mode worked for everything except the ones I selected - I suspect there should be NO global View Mode at all, just force each folder to have a specific View Mode.
