Under grouped by "From", then sort emails inside groups by date received

I have sorted by group - in this case "From", but I can not find a way to sort by date within the groups. It is defaulting oldest to latest, I want the newest emails to be at the top of the stack.

This worked for me.

View|Sort by|Unthreaded View|Sort by|Date View|Sort by|Descending View|Sort by|Correspondents View|Sort by|Grouped by sort

Kinda clumsy. I'd just use other filters, particularly sort by date (click on "date") and the Quickfilter Bar.

You're right it is a clumsy way to get there, but it worked. I'll save this so when I wonder off and mess things up again I can get back to the way I like things. Additionally, I agree with the quick filter option as well.
