New Outlook Layout - How do I add more columns (Size of Mail) to the inbox?

Hello Stefan,

I will be happy to help you with your question, I am a Microsoft consumer and Independent Advisors who cannot access accounts.

The new Outlook for Windows brings the latest features, intelligent assisted capabilities and a new modern and simplified design to your Outlook app.

Concerning the issue you are experiencing with the layout of the columns in the new Outlook application, you can change the layout of the application to your desired taste. Kindly follow the steps below to achieve this:

1. Launch the Outlook application.
2. Click on the View tab >> View Settings
3. From the View settings page, Select layout. On layout options, you can choose the way you want your inbox to be displayed.

I hope this helps.

However, to switch back to the old outlook application, please check the steps in the Official Microsoft documentation below: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/the-new-outlook-for-mac-6283be54-e74d-434e-babb-b70cefc77439#:~:text=How%20to%20switch%20back%20to%20Legacy%20Outlook

Thank you for the kind understanding.

Thank you very much for your reply. Unfortunately, this does not help me any further.

I have no settings in the "View" pull-down menu. I would be happy to send you a photo of what the "View" menu looks like in my case. There are only the settings for the toolbar. But there are no layout options there?!?

I would be pleased if you could explain to me exactly how and where I can find the layout options.

Hello Stefan,

To change the Mailbox appearance on MAC,

1. Open Outlook and click Outlook > Preferences from the menu bar.
2. Select Reading.
3. At the top, choose the Display density. You can pick Comfortable, Medium, or Compact.
4. Next, select your preferred Message list view options. You can show a preview, the sender’s image, and group the headers.
5. If you like a Focused Inbox, check the box for that next. Then your messages will be sorted into Focused and Other.
6. Finally, mark the options you want to use for Conversations. You can group emails into conversations and have them automatically expand when selected.

The steps above " I pulled from the Microsoft documentation: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/customize-views-in-outlook-for-mac-257d7104-5c90-4ee3-bad2-9935ab424c64"

I hope this helps.

Thank you very much for your reply. Unfortunately, this does not help me any further.

I am looking for a way to add additional columns to the inbox. Next to the sender, the subject and the date, I would also see the size of the Email.

How can I do that?
