Using New Outlook on Windows for personal email, calendar, and contact management
Thank you!!!! This was driving me nuts!!!
My subfolders in the new outlook seem to be sorted by date of change/creation. How can I sort them in alphabetical order?

A few weeks ago it was automatically putting the subfolders in alphabetical order but now it does not. Bottom line, that option does not appear for me in Outlook.
