New outlook - order of email accounts

Anonymous
2023-04-18T15:28:16+00:00

I have multiple email accounts linked to my outlook login, some for work, volunteering and some personal for me and family.

Since 'upgrading' to the new version, I have loads of 'favourites' which I never use and the order of the accounts is not how I want them. I can see how to change your primary but not how to sort the list to change the order top to bottom. Also can I remove the favourites as I don't use them, or even hide?

Thanks

Bill

    Tap on the top left of what? There is nothing to click on? What button are you referring to?

    Hey George,

    I have Outlook 2021, excellent reply, thank you.

    I clicked the "Found Helpful" button, but may have inadvertently hit the 1 star.

    How do I change the rating from 1 to 5 stars?

    I FIGURED IT OUT !!

    1. Tap on top left and a pane for "All Accounts" would show.2. Go to Settings on the bottom left and the Settings pane would show up.

    3. You should see "Mail Accounts" and next to which is "Edit".

    4. Click on "Edit" and you can sort the accounts in your preferred order.

    Hope that helps! You're welcome : )

    Only solution I could find to this problem in the New Outlook was to add each account's Inbox to Favorites, and then within Favorites I could change the order of appearance of the Inboxes. This doesn't help to reorder any other folders, such as Drafts or Sent, unless they also are added to Favorites. John

    As usual MS kill the things that work or makes them unusable and then make you use something much worse.
