I was reading my mail & I clicked somewhere near the top and my e-mails became scattered & out of date. 1 was Dec 4, the next was June 25, then Feb 9 etc.

You can click on any header of the thread pane to sort on that column. You probably clicked on the Subject or Author header to order on that column, causing your messages to not be sorted on date anymore. Just click on the Date header to sort again on that column. If you click on the same header again, the sort order reverts, so for the Date column, it changes from the most recent message on top to the oldest message on top.
