    The only way I've found to sort alphabetically is to close New Outlook, open Old Outlook, use the right-click > Sort function, then re-open New Outlook.

    I have done this and there's no option to "Sort Subfolders A-Z"

    Has anyone else had this issue?

    Thank you,

    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!
