Sorting by date, sender, subject, subject A to Z or Z to A
Every other email I've used allows sorting by date, sender, subject. A to Z or Z to A (not the same as filtering by key word)

I can right click a Google email and "Show" all from that sender. This is absolutely critical to sort out all the emails at once (for example, to delete), or to see all the communications. I love ProtonMail but it will soon be a show stopper.

Yes please. Also, when I use a mail program like outlook, proton mail bridge doesn't work quite well. So I can filter in outlook, but archiving mail won't work for example. So my 'workaround' doesn't work well either.

and also reverse date, for threads in a folder.
Currently the new mail goes to the bottom, not the top, of a thread.
The use case is receipts from a given store. They show up as a thread because the subject is always the same. For purchases however, you want the most recent at the top, not the bottom.

I would be useful to have the ability to filter my inbox by who the email is FROM. Currently only the "Conversation" mode is available.

Add size as a column and able to sort emails by size (largest to smallest or smallest to largest)

Have Outlook so I am accustomed to sorting by sender. Adding my Protonmail account has been difficult. Had it setup at one time but now keep getting login issues due to port settings. Had to delete it from Outlook.

This is a very handy feature that would really improve and eases email management. Yahoo currently offers this as a standard feature, however this feature is notably absent from Gmail. Thanks by the way recently for a very nice release to your your email interface, very nice work!

Allow mail to be sorted by 'Subject' or 'From'.

I was about to sign up for ProtonMail, but the inability to sort by sender (note: NOT search, but sort) is a show stopper for me.

Create a sort feature whereby inbox emails can be sorted by sender

At present, messages can be organized by Size and by Date. I'd like to be able to organize my messages alphabetically by Sender and by Subject Line. So, for example, I could group all my messages from Google Alerts together and read them all, then move on to other messages. This seems the only common email feature that's missing from ProtonMail, and it would be so helpful.

When examining the contents of any folder (including the inbox) it would be helpful to be able to sort the emails by sender name, and by label, alphabetically and reverse alphabetically.

I agree. The work around I have been using is putting the sender's name in the the "search messages" box. It works but is a time waster. When emails pile up it saves a huge amount of time to be able to sort by sender to quickly delete marketing and other junk emails. I have never sorted emails by size, but sender seems like a feature everyone would use.

Inbox can be ordered according to size and date, but why can it not be ordered according to sender? Useful to "tidy up" after a lot of emials accumulate

Please also add sorting of parent folders alphabetically and then the children folders alphabetically, it's very annoying to have to manually drag and drop folders in the correct order.
This is because dragging parent folders is very annoying. It keeps trying to move a parent folder into another parent folder, which gives an error.
It would be nice to move folders in the tree up and down with the keyboard instead of the mouse.

This is the most frustrating thing about Protonmail, so much so I've almost decided to stop using it. THIS IS A STANDARD FEATURE. IT IS NOT A FRILLl!!! I can't believe I even have to ask for it.

Ditto the comments by Anonymous on July 22, 2020. This is enormously frustrating and has been available on other services for a long time. ProtonMail is an excellent service that would be even better if it were possible to sort views based on Sender, Subject and date.

I would like to delete emails from specific senders.
It will be more easy if i can sort them by "name/sender", like i can do in thunderbird.

I just upgraded to Plus and am trying to import another email - but I can't sort my emails by Sender or specific keyword strings. This is really important to me because I want to quickly organize the emails into folders. A bonus would be filtering the sort using multiple categories (by Sender, then by Read/Unread, then by Starred, etc) - but at least allow me to sort by Sender or search for a string.

I really need to be able to sort by Sender, Title, Date, read/unread, tags, star/favorite/importance.
If mails are sorted into folders, then you should be able to see what folder (or the inbox) each email is located in.
