My default criteria for sorting the Inbox is by date/time received.

Occasionally I want to search for an attachment—that I can’t remember the exact details of (name, sender, etc.). So I click on the Attachments column head and it sorts all messages with attachment to the top of the list.

But the dates of these messages with attachments are random; they are not sorted in chronological order, which seems most useful.

Shouldn’t the sub-criteria always be by date received? Benny, can you make this so?

Secondary sort keys would be nice. For this specific problem, though, what I do is a search for "Attachment count" "is not" "0". That gives me all of
the message with attachments, sorted by whatever I want.
