Using New Outlook on Windows for personal email, calendar, and contact management
Why does this feature work on the app version and not the desktop version? How insane is that?

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?

Sorry to ask, but I stumbled on this question for the same issue on Classic Outlook. Could please someone verify that this is still working on the Classic Outlook?
I did briefly see 'All mailboxes' in the searchbar but its gone forever now. Whenever I toggle in Outlook (classic) search settings 'include results only from:' 'All mailboxes', the searchbar doesn't let me choose all mailboxes anymore.

Thank you!
You still have not explained why you have not reinstated "mail" either as a permanent option or, at least, until "outlook" has all the functions it included.

I just came back again since my first message in March 2024 and see zero progress has been made. I am a recently retired software developer with 40 years of experience. I have been in dozens of product development meetings where new products as well as upgrade x.0 product features were discussed, evaluated, and determined. I cannot believe no one sitting in your meetings did not express that you were making a magnificent error. Instead of moving forward with the basic missing functionality of a unified IMAP inbox, I'll bet the young UI designers got on top to draw pretty pictures and the AI team sold you down the river with wizz bang functionality. I'll bet there wasn't a gray hair in the room. SAD!
The lack of a simple and intuitive search across all mailboxes/accounts is silly, unserious, and when struggling to search across various accounts for something important, enraging.
How is this the cutting edge?
