My inbox has a mind of it's own!

Help, my mail inbox has started to receive my mail all over the place. How do I change settings to have all incoming mail together rather than all over the place?
Advice welcomed.

    You don't say which program you're using to collect your emails, but if it's Outlook Express or Outlook, have you tried clicking on the sort tabs at the top of your Inbox?

    There should be tabs saying something like From, Subject, Received, Size. Clicking on one of these sorts the mail into order within those categories.

    Thanks for the reply. I'm using Outlook. Will I find the items you mentioned at the top of the page?
