    This is what I did.

    On the upper right hand corner there is a "coming soon" box with an on and off switch nexto it. If its "on" turn it off and restart. it worked for me.

    Don't you all see that this issue is raised almost 1 year ago? Since then several updates have came and non has corrected this, it's clear that Microsoft does not want that or doesn't care. 

    I recently have the chance to work on another office 365 install, that still has the old search... What a relief, I was so excited to have it back and working properly that I seriously consider getting rid of that insider Office builds and get the normal o365 package. 

    My main issue with that dumb search is not the placement but how it (doesn't) work. In old search mails were FILTERED dynamically as soon as you start typing in the search, showing just the mails that contained the search criteria. Now you have to press ENTER and search is not dynamic even if that option in settings is active...it's just showing dynamically 2 or 3 results and not a real filtering

    Not sure how could a company decide to do such major UI change without giving user the flexibility to put it back to where it was.

    Oh! I forgot! It's Microsoft we are talking about.
