bold text Previously I put the mouse on bottom of very long list and pushed them up until I had a workable IN BOX list. They were not lost they kept the displayed list the same as I deleted emails after reading.

Not sure what the problem is - you state what you used to do, but not what the problem is.

You do not manually move - push emails up and down. They auto display in a given sort order determined by your 'Sort by' settings. You can alter then on the fly by clicking on the relevant column header, twice if necessary to reverse the sort. You can enable and disable threading. You can filter eg show only unread mail by using the 'Quick Filter' icon for show unread mail. Click on same icon again afterwards to remove filter and revert back to default.

Via 'Menu bar' toolbar. View > Sort by > eg: Date, descending, unthreaded

If no 'Menu bar' enabled it - Menu app icon > View > Toolbars > select 'Menu bar'

Maybe by push up you mean this: You clicked on the right scroll bar and pushed it upwards to see a different section of emails in list. That may imply you get emails appended so newest is always at the bottom. That only works if you have a scrollbar and you only see scrollbar if there are too many emails in list to display in one view.

Do you see a scrollbar on the right side of list of emails ? Does your list look different - do you see one email per line or does each email take up 3 lines ? Are you using Table view' where you see column headers such as From, Date, Subject etc OR are you using 'Cards View' and you cannot see any columnheaders? What are your 'Sort by' settings.


You really need to state the actuall problem. upload an image if it helps to explain situation.
