Usually email is set up to sort by the date/time it is received. But occasionally a stray click may change the way your email is sorted. Do you want to know how to get it back to the way it used to be? Here's how!

 

If you click on the field title (i.e. From, Subject, Received) at the top of your email list it will sort by that field. For example, if you want to sort by who it's from, click on the From field. If you want to sort by Subject click on that. And if you want to sort by how it's received (the default) click on the Received field heading.  You may have to click twice because it can sort by ascending date or descending date.

What if one of those fields is missing? Perhaps a stray click took away the From field so that you no longer see who your mail is from.

If you have any questions, feel free to let me know!
