The column headers in the folder view control sorting. Click on them to 
select different orders. The Date column has several: Order of arrival 
ascending or descending, origination date ascending or descending.

also has a variation with "status," but I don't know what that means. I 
set mine all to thread by date of arrival with newest at the bottom 
(arrow pointing downward).
