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".

    Also have this problem... I just want to open select messages in a pop-out, read them and then either move them to right folder and the window closes or delete.

    New Outlook is not conducive to this - also why no delete option near the shortcuts for reply/forward at the top of the message and only in the "..." option?!

    Doing it from the message list view is an extra step.

    I have customers asking the same question and are frustrated with this. Microsoft please correct this oversight in the new Outlook.

    I'm desperately trying to acclimate to the new outlook, and this is making is VERY difficult.

    This doesn't solve the issue, but I do like being able to customize the action buttons that popup when you hover on an email in the list to include a "Move to folder" button

    I found an answer to this. In outlook hit "Command" + "." this will bring up "Keyboard Shortcuts" there is a dropdown list for "Outlook", "Apple Mail", and "GMail". This selects the keyboard shortcut default behavior for Outlook, mine had "Apple Mail" selected, I changed that to "Outlook" and the functionality returned.
