I'm quite embarassed by this, actually: After my posting I tried the "GO TO MESSAGE BOARD VIEW" link and it did the behavior you described. The active postings with comments are at the top of the list.
Not very obvious, I know, but it seems to work. This should be the default view, in my opinion!
That's the tip of the day :)

Thanks for the info. This is much more helpful, I wish I had found it ages ago. I wonder why it hasn't been explained better before, I am sure others haven't found it yet.

Actually, the comments should indeed be sorted most recent first; for
me to read comments I haven't read I need to scan every topic. This is
a problem for both the message view and also the RSS feed, which only provides new threads (topics), not new posts or comments to existing threads or topics.

Sorry, what I meant was, "the comments should indeed be sorted most recent first; for me to read comments I haven't read I need to scan every post or comment in the topic or thread.
