How to SORT emails? Search emails faster.


Usually we don't delete the emails that we receive. We just keep it thinking we may need it in the future. Even if we deleted the SPAM and unwanted emails, there are still so many emails that keeps accumulating. After a while, if you want to search for a particular mail, then it becomes very difficult to find the mail we want. When the same person sends many emails, to find the email we are looking for in that long list, takes a lot of time. But there is a way. You can sort these emails. If you use MS Outlook or Outlook express to download and read emails follow this tip.

Look at your inbox. On top of your list of emails you will see the headings in small lengthy buttons namely 'From', 'Subject', 'Received' etc.

Just click on any of the buttons to sort the emails accordingly. For example if you want to sort all the emails based on the 'Sender' which is the 'From' heading then click on the 'From' button and all your emails will be immediately sorted based on ascending order of the sender's name. Click on the same 'From' button again to sort in descending order of the sernder's name. You will see a small arrow either facing up or down on the button based on whether it is sorted ascending or descending order.

Likewise you can also click on the other heading to sort for instance, based on the 'Received time' etc.

Eudora email client users can also use this method to sort their emails.
