Sorting by multiple columns

You can sort your email messages by simply clicking on the column head. This works in most email clients. Sorting by multiple columns is less common, but can be done in Outlook..First, sort by the first criterion, such as From, by clicking on the column head. Then hold the Shift key down as you click on a second heading, such as Received. Your messages will be sorted primarily by sender, and all the messages from each sender will be ordered chronologically. You can even add additional columns to sort by. Outlook will sort your messages by each additional criterion within the earlier criteria to give you a multicolumn sort.
