Information in the Inbox view
The Inbox view displays a column of preview cards for each conversation. A conversation will remain in the Inbox until it is archived or deleted.
By default, conversations are sorted by newest to oldest with the newest conversation appearing at the top of the Inbox view. This is indicated by the Inbox Sort icon pointing up. To sort conversations from oldest to newest click on the Inbox Sort icon. When the icon is pointed down your conversations are sorted from oldest to newest.
