I sort my emails with the last one on top in all maps. But if I use the conversation view, I see the oldest one only and have to open the list to find the recent one. This is so annoying that I tend to use the conversation view at all. The order should be recent at top en the oldest below, or I should have an option to arrange this myself.
Thanks to anyone who can add this option for me

KUDOS.

This mandatory Conversation grouping  is hiding unopened emails, including VERY IMPORTANT emails.

It must become a selected option, not a default feature.

It causes me to miss emails FROM MY ATTORNEY.

Who has their head in the dark with this feature?

Threading(grouping) emails (conversation) need to by option, not to be by default.
It cost me a lot of headaches every day. 1 hour I can not find any normal workable explanation how to remove it

Dear Markin Idaho and Prometey,

You come up with a different question than the one for which I started this conversation. Please start your own treat next time.
Conversations can be disabled after a bit of searching in the menu: go to 'View' (beeld) and then "sort as" (sorteren als) and there you find the choice between conversations and no conversations.
I disabled "conversations" because of the wrong order that hides everything new. And that is MY question, "how to have conversations with the newest at the top"

And please don't indicate that the problem of this treat is solved, because your problem is solved now.
Best
Ferdinand

Yeah!  😍

Full support!
I also have the problem that the email threads are very long and I have to unfold them to scroll to the latest email. This would make my life a lot easier!

The order of emails in a Topic tree is from the oldest to the newest. As I am normally more interested in the newest emails, I suggest to change the order, as shown in the attached picture.

Agree. This is the standard also for other eMail clients. Very strange that it has not been implemented yet.

Sorting emails in discussions

Please add the ability to change the sorting of emails in discussions. So that when opening a discussion, the last email is displayed first in the list and the date of the last email is indicated in the main email, and not the first one received

There is an exciting, multi-year development effort in progress that first must deliver a new, more capable and less fragile message database.  That work is well under way, and once that is delivered then features such as this will be possible.  There is not yet a firm ETA.  Stay tuned.

+1 Great idea! Having the most recent message displayed at the top would make it easier to quickly access and follow conversations without having to scroll through older messages. Additionally, providing users with the flexibility to arrange conversation views according to their preference would greatly enhance the overall user experience.

Implementing this feature would offer users greater control over their inbox organization and improve efficiency when navigating through conversations. I believe adding this option would be a valuable enhancement to the messaging platform. Thank you for considering this suggestion!
