This was disabled in faa666394c
because it isn't possible to extract the name of the android
contact in the 'ORDER BY...' clause when querying the database.
Instead it simply sorts by the email address.
This may cause the same contact to appear multiple times in
the list, if they have multiple email addresses assigned.
But in most cases this is good enough and surely better than
not having the option to sort by sender at all.
Desktop mail clients such as Thunderbird also simply use the
sender email information when sorting the column.
This also adds a SenderComparator for usage in the MergeCursor.
Some people prefer them over swiping / volume keys.
They could probably be made optional so they can be hidden.
Also: delete the now unused message_view_fragment.xml and message_view_option.xml.
Recent phones frequently do not have a hardware search key, so
there is no way to initiate a search without a menu option.
Related to issues 3386, 3428, 4523, and 4643.
Disabled "sort by sender" for now because the database can't sort by
contact names from the contacts database. We probably have to
special-case that and do in-memory sorting.

that widgets_on_left does nothing at all. based on feedback, I may kill
the preference and multi-mode behaviour entirely in favor of "show stars?"

Stars, "checkboxes" and color bars updated to actually fit in wide mode.
On each IMAP account, the expunge behavior can be set to expunge
messages in a folder as soon as a move or delete is performed on the
folder ("immediately"), each time the folder is polled, or only when
executed manually.
In the Message List, there is now an Expunge action in the option
menu.
In the Folder List, there is now an Expunge action in the context
menu (long-press on the folder).

A bit more work is in order on that.
because a user that has auto-open set to a particular folder might
never get to the actual folder list which contains the option menu
containing Account Settings. (There's been one comment in the Market
pertaining to this.)
