How to Sort Names in Groups With EarthLink Web Mail

EarthLink Web Mail allows you to check your emails online safely and securely. Your emails are stored in the EarthLink server, and you can opt not to receive email from particular senders. EarthLink Web Mail also filters out the emails sent by spammers and categorizes every email. One of EarthLink Web Mail's features is the address book, where you can create a new group to use when sending an email to several contacts at once. In newly created groups, you can also sort your contacts in the order of recently added first, display name, first name, last name, email address or phone number.
