Thanks for your solutions, guys.
Listing messages by date rec'd works only if you don't have stuff you
sent (replies) in the same folder, and want those replies to be listed
in chronological order alongside received messages, since they don't
have a "date received" property.
The script worked great as an application but for some reason I
couldn't get it to work from Entourage's script menu... I Tried saving
it in a couple different formats but no go. No biggie, it did the job.
:)

Thanks again!
