Has the option to display email headers (Incoming IP Addresses) been removed from Hotmail? It once worked but I cannot activate it any longer. The recommended sequence cannot be completed as the option seems to no longer exist.

The word from hotmail customer support is that the 'sort' function now disappears after your mailbox exceeds 5000 emails. They recommend either configuring OE to use a hotmail account or downloading Window Live Mail at http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

Thank you! I'll add this to the article.

The ability to 'sort' disappears after you have so many emails in your inbox. The last time I went through this I had to get that number down to 1200 emails before the sort function came back. The answer from hotmail customer service told me this, but they couldn't give me a specific # of emails or percentage full the entire account had to be before the sort function came back.

R/Sir,

I am not able to see Column Header "From" in my home PC, while checking messages in "Inbox" but when I open Hotmail account in office able to see "From" column header.
So, What is the problem?
And What are the steps to get back "From" column in Hotmail account.
Is there any option in Hotmail to add/delete "Column Header"?

Thanks In Advance.

Regards,
Anand

Hi I am having the same problem, my hotmail account will no longer sort by from. It used to do it no problem and I have not changed anything on my computer. I am finding it frustrating as I cant function without it and find it difficult to move and delete emails if I cant sort so they are piling up in my inbox.

Help! Thanks

The problem I have since Windows Live started is: Generally, the newest mail is on top. This can be sorted by clicking on date, but it keeps switching back to new mail on top, i guess it's preset.

Is there a permanent solution? If I've received several mails i hate having to switch so the new ones are on the bottom. Arrgh...

Thanks for any advice because you can't expect any from msn,
Michael

I can do these things you suggested, but the problem is that the new emails appear anywhere in the inbox, sometimes the middle, never the top or bottom...I have to look for the unopened letter icon. I can file some of the other emails in folders, but not all of them, and it is driving me nuts that it is so hard to find emails...

Not sure what to tell you other than "it works for me".

Things that could affect it: make sure you're using IE. I use Firefox and it
worked for me, but perhaps other browsers don't? Also make sure that Javascript

Is the "sort" function still available? I used to be able to sort using the method you described above but hotmail will no longer allow me to do this. Did they change something?

When i forward an e-mail that has photo's or jokes with pictures,the photo's and pictures will not forward.It sends a white box with red, white, and blue colors in the upper left corner.My husband also has a hotmail account and his doesn't do this.We have a business account and it doesn't do this.Our settings are the same except the full headers are set on mine for reporting spammers and i have the paid version which he does not have. I have e-mailed MSN 3 times and they have tried to figure it out,but they don't know anymore than i do.It's a real pain when you want to forward a good e-mail and can't.Thanks in advance!

HI!Leo , that well and good. Now I need to delete 950 unsolicited e-mails and including msn stuff they send. How do I clear out the mailbox without losing real solicited e-mail.
