No, you right-click on the column headers, select the option that says "Add a Column", then choose Recieved from the list presented and drag it to the position you want in the column headers row. Then click on the header to sort. You can of course also remove the normal Date column if it takes up too much space. poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
