Sorting conversations according to their oldest message

[Yuval]

Hi,

When sorting by conversation topic you can have either the newest or
oldest conversation on top. A conversation's "age" is determined
according to the newest message in the conversation. I would like to
change the behavior so that a conversation's age will be set according
to the oldest message in the conversation.

I have searched for this both in the Outlook documentation, the web and
various newsgroups but could find no clue how this is done.

Does anyone know if this is feasible, and if so, how exactly?

Thanks in advance,

Yuval

did you try editing the sort field used by the view?

I don't believe you can but *maybe* you could create a custom view with a
specific sorting and grouping that could do it. I've never tried though.

I've tried this already but could not find a way to do this. Does
anyone from MS monitor this newsgroup and can possibly help?
