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?

    Hey, I found it!

    I do remember this remedy and attempted to implement it. This however didn't exist in my computer when I looked. I'll see if I can't find it tonight.

    It'd only be logical, if new Outlook wasn't also a forced download upon all of my 365 clients. It's taken me two years to attempt to get everyone back to classic outlook, and I still have computers and accounts that are being stubborn. Ha.

    Doesn't work for me. I change the 'friendly name' of my google Account and it still remains the same in New Outlook. Absolutely fine in all other mail clients.
