Russ,
This problem also applies to"Sent" messages, and who you are sending
messages to. If you "reply" to a message, then the "To" field will show one
thing. If you send it from your address book, it can well show another. It
is equally or more problematic to find all the messages sent to one email
address.

Since the From field is controlled by the sender and could be anything the
sender chooses, why would you ever want to sort on it? What's the point
here?

How can a sort messages by the email address. If I click on the "From"
field, it has messages listed by various alias (i.e. "File as"). The
same email address can have several different alias', so I often can't
find all the emails from one email address.



It was suggested that I could "Right click on the column header, select
Field Chooser and add the Account field.", however, this did not work.
(The "Account" field in "All contact fields" does not show anything.
There is an "Email Account" field, but that is who the email is sent
"To". I want who it is sent "From" and the "From" field is listed by
alias, not email address.



Any suggestions?



Thanks for any help
