The other potential issue is that c-client (or at least the version  
you have compiled into your PHP binary) doesn't support the SORT  
extension (the SORT extension wasn't made an official RFC until very  
recently).  So it may simply be that you can't do any sorting other  
than arrival time with your setup.
