Sort messages by multiple headings

It is possible to apply more than one sort to messages using the column headings that appear at the top of your inbox or other folders.

This will allow you to sort, for example, by Sender then by Received date.

Sort firstly by clicking on one column heading (to perform your first sort). As long as you hold down the Shift key in conjunction with clicking on the second column heading you wish to sort by, the messages should not completely rearrange themselves but retain your first sort then apply the second sort to the first sort.
