The auto-nav block will return a list of pages in tree form matching the settings you use.

You can then use a custom template to control formatting of the menu. 

Pages should appear: In this drop-down menu you select how you want the pages to be ordered in the nav. They can be arranged how they are in the sitemap, chronologically/reverse chronologically, or alphabetically/reverse alphabetically.
