REQUEST: Global SORT-BY on ALL folders

A

andwan0

I really like using Windows Live Mail, however if one has 100 folders, and
1000s of emails in each folder, then it gets messy and hard to tidy up mail.
One major problem is dragging/moving mail from INBOX to the wrong folder and
not knowing about it. So I like to go through each folder and sort by From
or Subject to make it easy to spot misplaced emails.

Is there a global function which can fix the sort-by type? Everytime I
change folder, the sort-by is on default sort by Date. I have to manually
sort by Subject or From-field each time I change folders... which is
cumbersome. If there isn't any function which can change the sort-by to
apply to ALL folders... where can we request such feature?


Cheers

Sorry, I read that post in the vista.mail newsgroup and did not
notice it was already cross-posted.
