My subfolders in the new outlook seem to be sorted by date of change/creation. How can I sort them in alphabetical order?

There is no option in new Outlook as you describe. On right click on the parent folder the popup does not offer the option to sort the subfolders.

How do you propose to provide this option?

The NEW outlook doesn't do it. It's very frustrating.

This is a bogus answer! There is no such option to sort A-Z in New Outlook. This is frustrating and causing me to revert back to Old Outlook.

Puzzling this question came in Jan-24 and a company of the size of MS has yet to address such a trivial issue!

In the NEW OUTLOOK version, how do I get my subfolders to sort in the order of my choosing? When I switched to the new outlook, it sorted my subfolders in alphabetical order and I do not want them in that order. But when I tried to move them in the order that I need, there is no option to move them around within the parent folder it is currently in. I had tried the right click option from above, and there isn't even any sort of sorting options what so ever now.

I accidentally found a solution. Select the folder with subfolders you want to sort alphabetically, choose 'open in new window', and close the old window. In the new window the subfolders are sorted alphabetically all of a sudden.

But indeed, a **** answer from Microsoft (do they know their own software??). Hope this helps you!
