    Move the mouse cursor on the folder you will see the count mail.

    This thread has been going for years at this point.
    If that was a solution people were happy with, this thread would have been locked the first of the multitude of times it has been brought up.

    Just googled expecting a simple answer to this very question - just want to have folders and subfolders numbered so I can see when, as a result of one of my rules, I have received an email without having to have multiple folders open!

    Bizarre that, according to this thread, there is no way and people have been asking Microsoft about this issue since mid 2023!

    Is it so hard to add this function?
