Show AllAn arrangement is a predefined pairing of a grouping and a sort order. There are thirteen predefined standard arrangements, and they are available only in a table view type. The groups are fully expanded by default, with the exception of the Conversation arrangement, which is collapsed by default. You cannot create an arrangement, but you can create a custom view with customized grouping and sorting.
In multi-line layout, you can quickly change from one predefined standard arrangement to another within a view, by clicking the Arranged By column heading, and then clicking the arrangement that you want.
Below are descriptions of the standard arrangements.
This arrangement groups messages into two groups (With Attachments and No Attachments) and sorts by the received date.
This arrangement groups messages by categories and sorts by the received date.
This arrangement groups messages by message subject or "thread." The sorting order of items in the "threads" is based on who replied to whom, and the sorting order of the groups is by date. When a new message is received, the entire conversation that it is a part of moves to the top of your message list. By default, only unread and flagged messages are displayed. You can see all messages in the conversation by clicking the arrow next to the conversation heading. Messages are indented to show you who replied to whom and when they replied to help you keep track of the conversation or e-mail message thread.
This arrangement groups and sorts messages by date. This is the default arrangement and your view is simplified by hiding unnecessary details. For example, messages received today show the time only. Messages from yesterday show the day and time, while messages that are older than a week show you more detailed date information.
This arrangement groups messages by e-mail accounts and sorts by the received date.
This arrangement groups messages by flag color and sorts by the received date. This arrangement shows only messages that you have flagged. Any message flagged by someone else (the message sender) displays in the Unflagged group.
This arrangement groups messages alphabetically by folder names and sorts by the received date. This arrangement is available only within a Search Folder.
This arrangement groups messages by names on the From line and sorts by the received date.
This arrangement groups messages by Importance (High, Normal, and Low) and sorts by the received date.
This arrangement groups messages into the five categories below and then sorts the messages by size.
This arrangement groups messages alphabetically by subject and sorts them by the received date.
This arrangement groups messages by name on the To line and sorts them by the received date.
This arrangement groups messages by item type and sorts by received date. For example, all e-mail messages would be in one group, meeting requests in another, and tasks requests in a third.
