Mail conversations sort backwards

in the list of email conversations the order shows on the left as the newest at the top, just like in previous versions. BUT, the email conversation window on the right is now having the oldest in the conversation at the top. What gives? Can it be changed?

MacBook Air, macOS High Sierra (10.13)

If I’m understanding your problem, I think it’s the same thing I ran into on an earlier macOS upgrade (maybe to Sierra)


if thats it, go to Mail Preferences, click the “Viewing” tab, then click “Show most recent messages at the top” (on bottom of dialogue)


Hope this helps!
