Outlook sort by name, but can't jump to name

Anonymous

I just tried the NEW outlook.

I can sort by names A-Z, but then I have to scroll to find the person.

The old outlook, I could just type the first letter and it would jump to that name.

Is there a setting in the new outlook that allows you to jump to the letter when typed?

I appreciate your attempt to direct us, but i can't follow your directions, I can't find feedback or maybe I am not seeing the Help menu, but clarification is needed

As described below, I toggle back and forth from new and old Outlook. Discouraging.

Hi Bill -

I have a toggle in the top right-hand corner of my Outlook Desktop App. This is where I switched the new Outlook off. The Outlook (PWA) or Outlook on microsoft 365 is also missing the search functionality. The one positive feature I see with that version is being able to pin emails to the top of my Inbox window. I am running both the desktop and PWA versions at the same time so that I can get the best of both.
