    In Outlook Express, the first column displayed on the Incoming message page is Account so I can easily see which of my several email accounts it was addressed to particularly if they are sending to an old but still active acct.

    In Outlook 2007 I would like displayed first the Mail Account as I set it up. But the closest customized choice I could find in the drop down list is "To" which either shows the full address or various combinations of my name as the sender put in their email.

    How can I see the first column of the Mail Acct which is my abbreviated distinctive name I assigned/specified in the set up menu ie "RobZ-RR" ?

    See if this fits .....

    In Outlook Inbox right click on one of the column headers > Arrange by and select 'E-mail Account'.

    Pete,

    Thanks for speedy reply but even tho that didn't work it helped me find the solution:

    Right click in header column
    Customize Current View
    Fields
    Frequently Used Fields (drop down with 6 different categories each with multiple choices of fields)
    Available Fields:
    All Mail Fields (1 of 6 choices)
    E-Mail Accounts (yayyyyyyyyy!)

    Have a great week,

    Rob
