Hi All
I'm loving the new Outlook, however I'm having real difficulty manually sorting my email folders.
Clicking & dragging the folder, only allows me to drop the folder INTO another folder, but doesn't allow me to drop it in between other folders (meaning I cannot re-arrange / sort the folders manually).
Right clicking the folder and clicking "Move", again only allows me to move the folder INTO another folder. There is no "move up or down" option unfortunately.
It is currently sorting my folders in alphabetical order, but I wish to change this. I have been through all the settings and cannot find anywhere I can manually sort my email folders.
Can anyone assist?
Thank you
Thomas

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.
How has this not been implemented yet? It's been almost 10 months since it was flagged
7 months since this was brought to attention and the feature hasn't been added, unfortunately.
Bump, I hope this gets fixed ASAP.
Same Opinion here, now finally I would start to use "New" Outlook as nearly all essentials are present but that topic is still a must have. So jumping back to "old" Outlook till it works...
It's sad that even Microsoft employees are asking for this basic function.
When will this be fixed??
Yes, definitely needed here too! It's frustrating to not have it as a function...
