Question

Mail and this forum

Oct 10, 2015 8:16AM PDT

I will post two separate notes in regard to my subject Title. First, my Apple Mail is coming through with the dates all mixed up.... I have checked and I have prefs set to have the newest at the top. I have run Disk Utility, restarted and shut down and restarted my Mac... I have searched for mail questions and find nothing to help. Anyone???

Thanks, Old Granny Lola

First thing is to define what you are referring

to as Apple Mail.
Is this mail addressed to you with an email suffix of .mac/.me/.cloud or is this mail from some other mail provider which you are reading with the Apple Mail app?

Once that is settled, a screen shot may come in handy.

First Thing to define is....

OK, my reference to "Apple Mail" is the app/program that came with my OS which is Yosemite. I have an "iCloud" email address.... and, how would I know if what I am reading came from some other mail provider.... my guess is that some does...but, what do I know? The "From" column shows only the name of the sender and their email address such as yours, it shows <newsletters @cnet...>... and they come from various places....you know what I mean, I hope. How would this have anything to do with the order in which I receive them? I can't find how to send a screen shot.... "Help" is no help.

Thanks,
