In the latest update of Outlook for Mac I can no longer see a count of the number of emails in my inbox.  Is there a way to get it back?

    Agree.  Please restore the email count for the inbox.

    That count is a vital tool for inbox management, how do you miss something like this in a major version release?

    Hello Francois Begin,

    Thank you for your clarification. I further tested and in New Outlook for Mac the feature isn’t available. Since our related team is still working on improving New Outlook, you’re welcomed to share any thought in The New Outlook for Mac UserVoice:  https://outlook.uservoice.com/forums/924856-the-new-outlook-for-mac . Your time and understanding will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks and Best Regards,

    Anna

    Same issue here in16.42, we are not talking about the number of unread emails .. but the total of emails in that forlder (i.e. Inbox).  It use to appear in the footer section of the software but it's gone.  It's a very helpful tool to manage your inbox.  Please make it available again.

    thanks

    Hello Robert Carroll,

    According to my test in 16.42 version, in New Outlook and classic Outlook window and next to the Inbox folder will always show the total number of Unread emails. For you issue of “no longer see a count of the number of emails”, could you kindly share more details of it with us for checking?  And what’s the full version number?

    You may also try to create a new Outlook profile, set it to default, restart Outlook and add your account again to see if result is the same: Manage profiles or identities in Outlook for Mac (please do not remove the old profile during test to avoid data loss) .

    Best Regards,

    Anna
