It does, as do they all, my problem was the first column was Subject and
clicking the column header for that wasn't solving my date problem.

Particularly as "Menubar-View-Sort by" was set to "From" so by default it
was being sorted Alpha on From.

Anyway, it's now working as I require.  :-)

Thanks for your thought.
Dave

Nb: Though I do use Tb when in MS-Windows it is my secondary mail client,
so I'm not particularly au fait with it minutia.

My primary mail client works on another OS.
