I get a large number of messages every day, in addition to those I filter out and don't see. Unfortunately, some of these messages

The resulting message list may have two or three, or tonight, 20,

as Ed Greshko replied, you have a sort option in the "View" selection. if you are reading emails with "Unthreaded", last of selects under "View > Sort by", select "Date" and they will be by time sent stamp. if you use "Threaded", use "View > Sort by > Order received" so they will sort by time stamp. ie; View > Sort by > Date + Unthreaded View > Sort by > Order received + Threaded may not seem logical, but this is how i find it to work in thunderbird up to 24.5.0. hth. -- peace out. in a world with out fences, who needs gates. tc.hago. g . -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
