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

Thank you for this! The folder pane really should update automatically when folders are added or renamed. At least give us the option to refresh or manually sort our folders.

Edit: I just found another post on this issue. Apparently, they're planning to rollout manual sorting starting in August for the Preview version and September for the stable/public version.

Thank you! This works!

That's insane. Thanks for posting this. I really, really, really dislike the latest version of Outlook. So many old features are either gone or work very strangely, like this.

same problem for me and very frustrating

This is not coming up in the drop-down list of options when I right-click on the parent folder in New Outlook. I also can't drag the folder to a new location in the list like I could in the previous version of Outlook.
