This one is separated as the first one is not in the archive yet, thus 
to the system there are multiple parent messages. It shouldn't happen 
with full archives. About sorting, here's the query I've used (my first 
try with CTEs incidentally):

WITH RECURSIVE t (mailbox, uid, date, subject, sender, has_attachments, 
parent_uid, idx, depth) AS (  SELECT mailbox, uid, date, subject, sender, has_attachments, 
parent_uid, uid::text, 1  FROM arc_messages  WHERE parent_uid IS NULL AND mailbox = 15  UNION ALL  SELECT a.mailbox,
a.uid,a.date, a.subject, a.sender, 
 
a.has_attachments, a.parent_uid, t.idx || '.' || a.uid::text, t.depth + 1  FROM t JOIN arc_messages a USING (mailbox)
WHEREt.uid = a.parent_uid
 
) SELECT * FROM t ORDER BY idx

Any improvements to sorting are welcome :)
