Here's his reply .....

The format DD.MM is used if the message was creatd in the last 12 months.
Otherwise the format MM/YY is used.

The weird sorting in the list results of the fact that messages
aren't sorted by creation date, but by receive date.

So the message created on 2021-02-13 "Rodrigo Pelaez Fernando Toledo Re:
Listado de BBS Lat!" was received before the message created in Jan.2021
"Flavio Bessa Fernando Toledo  Daily Nodelist proceusú".

But anyway, i'll have a look at it to see what could be done.
