An undo would be a great addition, since there's no choice in the window to restore the previous set-up. I filed the folders into family members first, then ranked people who need to be answered right away, then others who are not so frequent. It would be difficult for TB! to offer a choice to sort this way! :-)Thanks Jack. -- Regards, Maggie If the earth was flat, cats would have pushed everything off it by now.

I now see that there's a window that governs the folder arrangement, and it at least shows me that I must have hit 'name' while rushing around and unconsciously clicking okay to get rid of the window Never knew it existed! I'd love to have an explanation of how all the choices might affect my setup before randomly trying each one though. I notice there's no help button in that window. -- Best, Maggie “Insufficient facts always invite danger.” — Spock Running Windows 7, and emailing with The Bat! 7.0.0.56 Current version is 9.1.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

No problem if you click on the "Name" header. What you get is the 'Sort Folders and Accounts' dialog, where you can select what to sort and how. And you can always Cancel. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Sudden rearrangement of folders
Hello Bats, The strangest thing just happened - all of a sudden the folders in my message list have arranged themselves into alphabetical order. Forever, as far back as version 1, I have used a folder tree arranged by frequency of activity - those people I correspond with most. What could have happened? I never consciously set this, but arranged it manually. I have no idea how to undo it except to manually move the folders with ctrl+shift+arrow key back to where they 'belong'. Would any of you kind bats know how to prevent this from happening again? -- Best regards, Maggie Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field.
