Sorting contacts in Windows Mail according to LAST name

[LaVerne Hodel]

How do go about sorting contacts in Windows Mail according to LAST name?

Apparently Windows Mail permits changing the sort type only while
composing an email. Click on 'To:', then click on the Name column header.
It cycles through four different sorts, and should remember the last sort
you pick.

I still don't see a sort option for last name of the 4 cycles. Please help

Then the information in your Contacts may need editing.
Make sure each contact has a "Last" name shown as well as a "Full name".

I finally got them sorted by last name, but still can't get them to do a
second sort by first name, which I need in order to tell multiple last names
apart easily. How can I accomplish this?

You can only sort on one column at a time.
Try sorting the First Name, then the Last Name

You can also sort on the Full Name field, if you have each contact set to
display
Last, First
