I am now using Outlook for Mac, version 16.79.3 (23120117) and am extremely surprised by the new layout, which is missing various information / settings.
For example, how do I add additional columns (such as Size of Mail) to the Inbox?
I also wanted to switch back to the old version. -> Legacy Outlook. But after the switch I have to enter all email accounts again. However, when entering the account under IMAP, the "Next" button is highlighted in light grey and cannot be pressed. Email accounts can therefore not be entered.

Right?! AAAGH so frustrating I spend SOOOOO much time troubleshooting .... only way to get what I needed was wipe it and start over.... since I had recently wiped it, it wasn't as painful to wipe it again to start over.... there may be a clean Outlook uninstall somewhere ... really sucks.... good luck!
Our volunteers installed outlook this week and one of them accidently ticked the new outlook. Oh no, took ages to undo and they still dont have field chooser
I almost gave up but I wiped my PC and I was able to not touch the new Outlook and opened classic and it finally worked so someone lied lol
It's ridiculous... it's like a 5 year old kid designed it or someone who only uses mail to send a note to their friends.... sorry think a 5 year old would probably design something better... wow just amazed this was approved to be deployed... I do a lot of multuiple volunteer work and this version just stops me from doing anything....
I had to wipe my PC and first I tried to use the New unfortunately then found it was useless and tried to get back to the old and error after error. I ended up wiping my PC again and installing classic version and that finally worked to just work with that...
Blows my mind....
Probably worth adding your votes to these as well, as the one you've linked to has been logged under the classic Outlook category and not under 'Outlook (New)', so it might not get picked up as quickly.
