I switched to the new outlook and it is no longer showing the total number of emails in each folder.

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
In addition to my reply above, It seems that you also can hover the folder name to see how many emails are in the folder.
Thanks -- I was unaware of this right-click feature, which is an acceptable substitute for the status bar message count I've come to depend on.
I haven't seen this before - perhaps this is new. When I right click on a folder, Outlook now shows the number of emails in that folder.
Right. It probably doesn't. In that case I guess it is two extra clicks to turn off conversation mode, and then turn it on again.
It wont work if you use conversation mode. It'll only count the individual, since the new outlook wont let you expand the converseation unless you choose a single mail.
