    Here is a perfect example. I just noticed an email on my phone, that was received FIFTY FIVE minutes ago (at the time), that still was not on my outlook list. I tried clicking other folders, settings, anything to try and get it to refresh to no avail. Finally I shut Outlook down and restarted it, and VOILA there was the almost one hour old email, and outlook was online the entire time. We need a send/receive option.

    You keep saying "offline support" but that's not what I'm talking about. We need it while we're ONLINE. Many times people will send me an urgent email, and I can't sit around and wait until Outlook manages to retrieve the message. I need a way to force outlook to check NOW. Even windows mail had a "sync now" option. I see emails on my phone before I see it in Outlook, which many times is how I know that I have new email. If I can't trust Outlook to deliver an email as soon as it's on the email server, then I can't use outlook. Again, this has nothing to do with being online or offline. Unless my ISP goes down I'm online 24/7.

    Good grief and LMAO!!!! Way to go Microsoft!! What UX "geniuses" thought up this trash?? @Frank Coles is spot on.

    I was an SDET there for 10 years FTE. I hope some tester in the Outlook Team opened a bug so a bunch "brilliant" designers could feel good about themselves explaining the "brilliance" of this design feature. I swear at Microsoft the more people you get involved in a design decision like this the more you see the collective IQ of the group drop. Saw it for 10 years in person.

    Oh Microsoft, thanks once again for a complete waste of time in a help forum.

    At the moment, the new Outlook does not support offline access, so I guess that no Send & Receive options are needed for now. Offline support does appear to be on the list of things to be added in future releases; see https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/office/getting-started-with-the-new-outlook-for-windows-656bb8d9-5a60-49b2-a98b-ba7822bc7627.

    Dear Chris,

    Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you. In the "New Outlook" desktop version, the "Send/Receive All Folders" button has been replaced by a new feature called "Sync This Folder." To synchronize all folders, including your inbox, sent items, and other folders, you can follow these steps:

    * Click on the "Send/Receive" tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.

    * Click on the "Sync This Folder" dropdown menu.

    * Select "All Accounts" to synchronize all folders for all of your email accounts, or select a specific email account to synchronize folders for only that account.

    I am providing an official article regarding this below:

    If there is any update or I misunderstand you, please feel free to let me know. I will continue to assist you. Your understanding and co-operation are highly appreciated. Thanks for your precious time. Have a nice day.
