How can I reverse the date order of emails from most recent on top?

more options

Email date order was always new emails on top then in descending order of dates following. This suddenly changed for no reason I know of, now I get last dates on top then ascending until the most recent ends up on the bottom.

That really isn't a Firefox support issue. It is related to the software used by your web mail service or your email client.

In general, look for an arrow near the Date column to reverse the display order, or look in the preferences for that software.

Problem seems to have solved itself, not quite sure what I did!
