Yes, I guess. Date up and down, and Order of Arrival up and down.

I thought there were other sorting actions, by subject, etc like you mentioned in your first reply. And why when Kmail installed did it choose to alphabetize the subject?? and that does not appear as an option. Maybe because I copied all of my mail over from 10.2? Who knows......??? Anyway I am satisfied that I got it all organized now in a rational fashion. Thanks again, Bob S -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
