[imp] Display weirdness

While on that subject, not to be nit picky, but I'm just curious as to why 
when you log in to your INBOX that IMP starts on the page containing the 
last new mail message rather than on page one viewing the first new mail 
message (when sorted by arrival time in descending order)?   I get confused 
sometimes when I log in and see only a couple of new messages, but then 
realise I am on page 3 and I have 40 other messages before this page.  I 
guess by the default arrival time ascending order sorting this would be the 
correct page to jump to (assuming one would click on the next arrow to read 
the next message and not start at the end of the mailbox and work 
backwards), but could it be changed to page one if sorting by arrival time 
descending order?
