I am using Thunderbird and the File Open dialog shows Date Added . I would like to change to Last Modified (or the equivalent) . Is this a Finder setting, macOS or Thunderbird specific? How can that setting be changed?

  • I do not have Thunderbird, however, in a normal Finder window in column view one can right-click on the column headers and select from options available. Try it while in Thunderbird. Commented Jul 19, 2021 at 19:29
  • @user3439894 Yes that works . I accepted Steve Chambers' answer that says the same thing Commented Jul 19, 2021 at 19:41

When that dialog is displayed you can indeed choose what fields are displayed.

Just right-click on one of the column headings (next to "Name, Size," etc) and select from the list in the pop-up menu.

It should remember that selection, at least for that app.

  • Came back to this (I'm the OP) 30 months later and again made good use of it. Can I upvote again given multiple years have passed? Commented Nov 16, 2023 at 23:38
  • Well thx but each account is (I believe) restricted to down/upvoting any one comment or question once, though you can take back an up/downvote you previously gave. Commented Nov 17, 2023 at 14:07
  • Yea it was not a serious question here - just a manner of expressing appreciation Commented Nov 17, 2023 at 16:44
