Vista - alphabetizing/sorting address in the To and Cc lines

there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to how windows mail
alphabetizes/sorts email addresses in sent mail. i am new to windows mail
and set up two groups. i emailed one group and the names in the "to" line
were sorted by first name, z-a. i emailed another group and the names in the
"to" line were sorted by first name, a-z. i emailed several others (not a
group, just individual email addresses) and they were sorted by the order in
which i entered them from my contact list. what am i missing? is there any
way all mail being sent can be sorted alphabetically by name or domain name?
thanks.

do not understand the problem this causes, since they are in a GROUP, they will all get the mail.
regardless of which one is listed first.

if you are not using a real GROUP, but entering the addresses individually, then would have no idea why it sorts them differently.
