My Outlook view has changed. I like having all of the emails listed without breaks. I logged into RDC and opened Outlook on my office computer just now, and the emails are separated by date. That is, I have ‘Date: Today’ and a couple of emails; then there’s ‘Date: Yesterday’ and a bunch of emails. How do I make them go back to being in a list without being broken into dates?

On the View menu, select Arrange By, then deselect Show in Groups at the bottom of the list.

Voila!

Thanks. No idea how it got changed.

As it happens, I deleted today’s emails and it displayed an un-headered list. First of the month though, so I might get 20 emails today.
