Tom,

Yes, I was about to say that, but you beat me to it. Also using a right-click 
will bring up a whole bunch of other sort options on that particular column.

  To put your new messages at the bottom of the list you can use your jaws 
cursor go to the top of the screen/window go down about four or five lines to 
find a line with a row of icons 
  "Favorite Folders From Subject Received Size In Folder"
  locate the received icon and left mouse click with the numpad slash.  This 
will put your new messages at the bottom of the list.

  Heather,

  Dave Carlson gave you some starting tips, and it was his instructions that 
enabled me to switch from OE to Outlook 2003 last year. After you've made the 
adjustments he has suggested so far, post any new questions as problems occur. 

  I work easily in Outlook 2003. One seeming drawback compared to OE is that 
sighted assistance may be needed to place new messages at the bottom of a 
folder list. I gave up and just got used to having them arrive at the top. It 
proved to be an easy mental adjustment.

  Other listers can tell you about other email applications that work on your 
machine. However, if you give Outlook a little time and a few tweaks, you may 
find it has several advantages. Many like the calendar. I like the ability to 
select a series of messages from the message list and convert them in a single 
operation into a single text file.

      Hello,I am trying to get back to e-mail after a a week when I had to buy 
a win7 machine and found that  I am forced to use outlook 2003 as outlook 
express apparently will not be able to function in win7.  Can someone please 
tell me how to simplify outlook instead of having links etc?  Are the commands 
the same and how do I change the message order so the top has the past messages 
and the bottom has the messages just comming in the box?   I know that some 
claim that you can make outlook express work but, I here it is difficult unless 
you are good with computers.  Also is there an easy program out there like 
outlook express?  So far I find I really don't like microsoft outlook but 
perhaps if I can simplify the process, it might be easier!  Thank you so much! 
Heather
