For a friend of mine. He uses Thunderbird: He wants to set it to always (by default) display incoming messages in order of the date of receipt. I was wrong about fixing the display of incoming messages. It is true there is a place where I can work on the problem: top toolbar, View, display, sort by, date, descending. The problem is that it won't hold the setting. When I go out of email, and open it again, it returns to sorting by name of sender. _____ No viruses found in this outgoing message Scanned by iolo AntiVirus 1.5.7.1 http://www.iolo.com <http://www.iolo.com/iav/iavsmtp> --------------------------------------------------------------- Please remember to trim your replies (including this sentence and everything below it) and adjust the subject line as necessary.
