Looking for "all mailboxes" in new outlook interface

I have started using the new Outlook desktop interface. In the older version I was able to enter this search term: Folder:inbox and select all mailboxes and it would display all my inboxes from different email accounts. I cannot find the equivalent in the new interface. Does it exist? How can I look at the inbox of all my accounts without having to do them one at a time?

    My workaround,

    Create a search folder for "Mail Sent Directly to Me" and a search folder for "Mail From Specific People" choosing my own email as the specific person. Not optimal but at least I seem to be capturing all incoming and outgoing mail. Still testing my results.
