Outlook 2003 categories

Catorgies dont seem to work right for me. Maybe I just dont get what
hen non-category category is. Any useful advice anyone?

So if I have created three categories, Aimportant, Zimportant, and
important and the non categorized items I have four categories. The
default view for Outlook is arranged by-date and sort by-newest on top.

If you change this to arrange by-category and sort by-Z on top you get
your categorized item on top of the non categorized email and in order
of Zimportant, Important, Aimportant, then the non categorized items.
Ok, sounds fine.

But f you change the sort by to A on top then all the categorized email
go all the way to the bottom, as in non categorized items, then
Aimportant, important, then Zimportant last.

The categorized items still follow the a-z or z-a pattern but why does
this put them above or below the non categorized items? If sorting by
categories then all categorized items should stay together (as they do)
but should stay on top of all non categorized items always.

There is a school of thought that says non categorized items are a
category also...ok fine, but that in mind then the a-z or z-a category
naming scheme I am using for testing SHOULD break the categorized items
to both above and below the non categorized items (depending on what the
non categorized category is), but it does not.
