Those kinds of changes are normally documented in the
docs/CHANGES file.  You might want to give it a quick look next
time you find something has changed.

The default sort order is defined in config/prefs.php:

// user preferred sorting column
$_prefs['sortby'] = array(
    'value' => SORTARRIVAL,
    'locked' => false,
    'shared' => false,
    'type' => 'enum',
    'enum' => array(SORTARRIVAL => _("Arrival Time"),
                    SORTDATE => _("Message Date"),
                    SORTFROM => _("From Address"),
                    SORTSUBJECT => _("Subject Field"),
                    SORTSIZE => _("Message Size")),
    'desc' => _("Default sorting criteria:")
);

Lock (set 'locked' => true) those preferences related to
maintenance operations in config/prefs.php.
