I have just switched to "New Outlook" from the classic Outlook. For years I have used the Ctrl+Shift+V shortcut to quickly move a message to a folder and open the "previous" message. I am looking for a similar shortcut in "New Outlook".

    Hi Khou Sun,

    When will the feature be brought back?? When a user has an email popped out/open, there is still nowhere to click for "Move to a folder". Not sure why this feature wasn't incorporated into the "New" outlook as it was just as essential as "reply" and definitely more important to most users than "Assign policy", but I digress. Can this be passed along to the dev team working on this?? Thanks so much ;).

    Sincerely,

    I totally agree.

    It is beyond bizarre that Microsoft would remove the Move button from a popped out message.

    This Must be brought back please!

    OR provide the user the ability to select which buttons/actions appear in the popped out ribbon.

    This missing functionality alone is the reason I'm reverting back to the old version. I need to be able to move a message right from the popped out email.

    After about half an hour and trying several things I found the Ctrl+Shift+V shortcut works in the reading list but not when a message is "popped out".

    This is a change as with "legacy" Outlook I moved from one "popped out" message to the next, often not returning to the reading list. With "New Outlook" this no longer works.

    I am trying working directly from the reading list and that does seem to be working - though it is a change.

    The problem is when you have the actual email open you can't move it to a folder. You can set up a rule, but it won't let you move it to a folder. You have to close the email and then select from the list to move it to the folder. I'm sorry, but that is not going to work, you need to fix that.
