"All Inboxes" setting for the new Outlook that is part of Windows 11 (not Office)

The previous native Windows Mail app provided the option to have an "All Inboxes" view. It appears the new Outlook does not? Or am I missing something?

    A good solution, but to be able to open these emails, you still need to switch between mailboxes. Personally, I find any switching in itself inconvenient.

    If you add all your Inboxes to Favorites, you'll get an unread count:

    Since there's no Unified Inbox, is there at least a way to identify accounts that have new mail? I have 10 accounts that I use for various purposes, and I don't want to have to open each one individually to see which, if any, have new mail. The old outlook would provide a count of unread mail in the relevant accounts inbox.

    Not having this function is a major failing and a really strong reason to use something else for people handling multiple mail accounts.

    eM Client does indeed have a Unified Inbox. It calls it All Inboxes. eM Client has a free version as well as paid. The free one allwed my two GMail accounts to be in the All Inbox folder. I do not know if the free version allows more than two accounts here.

    If new Outlook is not delivered with a Unified Inbox then I shall go back to using eM Client which I only abandoned when Windows Mail had a Unified Inbox. This feature is a real deal breaker for me and from reading this thread, many others too.
