Using classic Outlook for Windows in business environments
I can't believe there's no fix to this yet.
How do I change the display name of emails on "New Outlook"?

I have multiple emails that are the same except for a slight change on the end (eg emailaddressone, emailaddresstwo) on New Outlook, I can't distinguish them. Is there a way to change the display name of email accounts and also change the order at which they show up in the list?

2025-05-05T16:54:26+00:00 With the length of time that has passed for this feature to be added to New Outlook, what possible reason would Microsoft have for not adding it? Are they trying to force users into purchasing Office 365? That's the only logical reason that I can surmise at the moment.
