How can I mount a data file (pst) in new outlook. In the classic version this is doable through the File menu which is not available in new outlook.

Need to create a pst file and upload a previously created pst file into outlook. This was an effortless exercise in classic outlook with readily available option in File menu. How do I get to that functionality in the new outlook.

    WOW is all i can say. I have years of old pst files that I need to get random things from. I even export out my pst file for each job once it is complete. then when a job comes back I link the old pst file for reference. SO is this in the works. I recently needed to rebuild my pc and downloaded outlook and it doesnt have the option to roll back to the old.

    I have the same complaint. I have years of PST files that are part of a projects that required emails to be stored with all data for each specific project. Not having access to those PST files will be a real problem.

    My primary email account is ******@addendum.com, which is located on a Microsoft Exchange Server.

    The order of my email accounts in the "new" Outlook is:
    ******@hotmail.com
    ******@addendum.com
    ******@addendum.com

    Why does Microsoft remove necessary features like the ability to order the Email accounts in the order I use them in. The email account I use the most, ******@addendum.com

    Name: ADDENDUM.COM
    Dates:
    Registry Expiration: 2025-02-22 05:00:00 UTC
    Updated: 2022-01-03 21:04:53 UTC
    Created: 1996-02-21 05:00:00 UTC

    For math majors, thats:
    28 years, 2 months, 3 weeks
    so there are a lot of emails to keep track of.

    I created TWO .PST files to put very old emails into.

    One was for last years emails and the other one for emails older than last year.

    I just wastes 1.4 GBs of disk space.

    That's OK since I have 4 GBs to start with.

    I was forced to create a Hotmail account to use Microsoft apps.

    I never use it for sending or receiving emails!

    I've seen apps that do NOT order a "Dropdown List" in any useful order.
    Because the programmer did NOT see the need.

    What an idiot, and the design team he rode in on...

    This is how I feel when I can NOT do simple things like:
    Not be FORCED to GROUP emails in my Inbox by something like when the email was "Received", who it is "From," and the "Subject".

    I routinely Order by From or Subject depending on what I am looking for.
    As an example, when I sort by Subject, to find all the incident numbers on an ongoing 94-day issue that has NOT been resolved. In the "OLD" Outlook, it would sort by "Subject" then Date.

    This is by far the stupidest thing I have seen from Microsoft....

    NEW - should imply better and improved. So far, that is not the case.

    I rolled back to the old outlook by pressing start, and searching for outlook. The old version was still there. I pinned it back to my taskbar, and unpinned the new outlook.
