In Thunderbirds message list the date column (at least) shows the wrong sort direction. More exact:
It shows the sort direction of the *previous* shown mail folder.
It shows this wrong sort direction until i hover it with the mouse.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Show the message list of a mailbox "abc"
2. Sort the date column asscending bottom up
3. The sort indicator shows now the direction bottom up
4. Change to another mailbox "xyz"
5. Sort the date column ascending top down
6. The sort indicator shows now the direction top down
7. Go back to the mailbox "abc"
8. The sort indicator shows the wrong direction until
   hovered by the mouse
6. The sort indicator shows now the direction top down
Actual Results:  
The sort indicator of the date column shows the wrong direction (namely top down) until hovered by the mouse

Expected Results:  
The sort indicator of the date column should show the reverse direction
