What happened to Next Item/Previous Item arrows in Outlook 365 for Mac?

My Outlook 365 for Mac recently updated. Previously, when I opened an e-mail message, there were up and down arrows in the upper right that I could use to go to the previous or next message without returning to the Inbox and list of emails. Now, those arrows have disappeared. No similar buttons or arrows are in the ribbon that's now at the top of the screen and I don't find them as options when trying to Customize the ribbon, even though there would be room for additional buttons. (See below.) I also haven't been able to find keyboard shortcuts that would let me go to the next or previous message without returning first to the Inbox.

Thanks for any help with this!

    I totally agree! There are now so many headings and (unnecessary) links to other apps that actual emails don’t have much space on the page. The recent change putting the pin, trash and flag icons on the right instead of the left was also jarring. I told the agent the same thing you did—stop with the unwanted “improvements”!

    The arrows have returned to my version of outlook.office365.com in Chrome.

    Use the keyboard shortcuts. CTRL COMMA goes to previous. CTRL PERIOD goes to next.
