Default Outlook Express - "Sent" messages

Hi - First thing, kudos and many thanks to all of you providing this really great forum!

Can the "sent" messages be re-set to list newest message first? I thought it had been doing that but all of a sudden, every time I want to check on a message that I had sent, I have to start with the way-back-when listings. Have not been able to find any help topic to explain this.

Again, thanks for any and all responses. Love TOTV!!

Left click on the "Sent" tab at the top of the page, it will sort with the oldest at the top of the page.
Click again and it will sort with the newest at the top.
Click again and the oldest is first (again).
Click again.....well, you get the idea.

OK, we will try another method.
You are now in the "sent" folder, looking at all your sent messages.
At the top of the page you should see some column names: Subject, To, Sent, Account, etc.
Put your cursor on the column name (sent) and right click your mouse. The drop-down menu should give you two options: sort ascending and sort descending. Click on the one that is currently unchecked.
