(2003) remove days and date from preview pane

W

W i l l

In Outlook 2003 it now groups my emails according to date recieved,
for instance, in my inbox I have a grouping for emails received
"Yesterday" and "Wednesday", etc..

How do I remove this feature? I want my emails to simply be listed in
order WITHOUT the Date headings above each day (or week, or month).

TIA

I followed the instructions and the groupings went away, but several hours later they returned. Any ideas?

By themselves? Did you restart Outlook and then they came back?

Try starting Outlook in Safe mode

Close Outlook
Check Task Manager to ensure neither Outlook.exe nor MAPISP32 is running
Start | Run
Enter outlook.exe /CleanViews
Select OK

Make your view changes again and close Outlook

Any better?

Of course something had to change, but I didn't do anything that I think
might have caused the problem, so I guess we could say "by themselves".
It's intermittent, but I do know that it does not necessarily occur
automatically EVERY time I restart OUTLOOK; when it does occur, I can't
say that it always happens at the start of the session - I just have not
been that observant. I do know that I need not log off and back on for it
to occur, so I don't think any logon scripts are the source of the
problem.

Interesting. I followed your instructions, and after "/CleanViews" the list of messages appeared with groupings and with solid lines between messages, just as it does from time to time, which tells me that my problem may be that my system loses configuration and returns to a default state, but not the state I desire. BTW, this is Outlook 2003 (11.5608.5703).

Anyway, I reset my configuration as I like it, and I'll let you know if it flips out again. Thanks for the help.
