Hi!
Welcome to SAF! To get your e mails straightened out, in Outlook Express go to View, then click on View. Choose Sort By. There is a sideways pointing arrow beside Sort By. Mouse over to it (slide your cursor over to the arrow) and another menu will appear. On this menu you will find the following items:
Watch/Ignore
Priority
Flag
From
Subject
Received

There should be a dot by one. This where you choose how you want your e mail sorted. I chose Received because that way I can read the e mails as they were downloaded to my Inbox.

There are two more items on this menu. They deal with whether you want your new messages to in at the top of your Inbox or at the bottem. The last two items are the words Descending and Ascending. I chose Ascending for me e mail.

Thank you Jeannie for your welcome and advise, but would you believe that after I wrote my problem I had to go out to soccer training with my son. I came back home and it was fixed by my wife. I had a problem the other day and sammy111 gave me the advise to go to system restore which corrected my problem so she did the same for my inbox and went to system restore and the inbox was back to normal.
Thanks again and enjoy Your Week,
Tazza
