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 with all comments about how important it is to be able to easily see the number of emails (ALL emails - not only unread) in folders.
Please add back this feature. It is critical for managing folders and avoiding having to archive unnecessarily and waste storage space.
Thanks
This is so necessary!
Working with the zero inbox approach. The ability to count mails in my inbox is crucial. Please restore this feature.
Other than Microsoft Nannyware switching OL over to the new version on its own every so often, and I have to revert and restart ... always at an inconvenient time.
Thanks for all of the work arounds (with the emphasis on "work"). The old method is still superior:
1 - Find eyeballs
2 - Move them to view the bottom left of the OL window.
3 - Focus eyeballs
4 - Read Item count
No, it's a stupid Microsoft regression. Go back to the legacy UI and it works like it should. Frankly, there is nothing in the new UI that is compelling enough to switch.
