Where is the send and receive button in outlook (New Outlook for Windows)

This is so typical of these forums and the "MVPs." They reply whether they know the answer or not. I believe that they are constantly rated, and they are rated on quantity not quality. It's amazing to me that we are on the FIFTH page of this thread, and the answers are still useless. If you don't know the answer, DON'T RESPOND. If that happened we'd still be on page one. From the non-existent sync button above, to the responses that "offline" support is coming, when this issue has absolutely nothing to do with being online or offline. It's a simple matter of having a sync or send/receive button that currently exists in the old outlook as well as the current windows mail that's being phased out. It boggles my mind that microsoft has so much difficulty getting email right. Windows Live Mail was the last client that was rock solid and not filled with dozens of useless tweaks and settings like Outlook.

I am sorry, but where exactly in the article suggested you treat this topic? I found nothing there relating to what we are discussing here...

Thanks for the help.

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 In the "New Outlook" desktop version, the "Send/Receive All Folders" button has been replaced by a new feature called "Sync This Folder."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.

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.

Those instructions are gibberish. First you say that the new Outlook does not have a send/receive button and then to remedy that you say to select the send/receive button. Pretzel logic. You are not reading the posts very well. They are saying that there is NO send/receive button and where in the blazes did it go? EDIT: This is all online as well.

Neither of these buttons exist in new outlook send and receive or sync

That's the dumbest thing I've heard about this. It's NOT superfluous, it's sorely needed. I received a verification email from microsoft (ironically), and saw it on the webmail for my email provider, but nothing on the new outlook. I waited for a couple of minutes before I closed outlook down, then restarted it. Then the email finally showed up. Yes, I was online at the time as I always am. For the life of me, I can't figure out why Microsoft can't get email right. The last "simple" email client that actually worked was Windows Live Mail, which of course was killed off for the far more complicated (and costly at the time) Outlook. Do they have just one engineer working on mail? Windows mail has been a dumpster fire since 2015, and the cat and mouse they play with yahoo (the 2nd largest email provider on the planet), is pathetic. Especially since 3rd party clients like Thunderbird can seem to do it.
