Unified Inbox for Outlook 2016
Outlook needs a unified Inbox similar to the Outlook for iOS app. For those of us with multiple email accounts it would be very convenient to have all emails arrive in one inbox; perhaps color-coded to show which account they were delivered to.

They wouldn't farm their enhancement requests out to a third party either..

Unbelievable that despite having been request 6 years ago, and being one of the most requested features, nothing has been done! The decent programmers working on the open source stuff would have implemented this in a month.

I have to use Outlook at work, but without a combined inbox, I shall be installing a different mail client on my own PCs. Notwithstanding that I am paying for a home Office subscription, Outlook is useless without this.

YES I agree, I have a problem with two email "Inboxes" and would like a unified inbox. When will this be available? Your hurting your loyal customers by not having this feature. Come on MS, lets get up to the 2021!

Before reading these comments I thought I just had to continue settling for Outlook to handle my multiple imap email accounts in separate inboxes. Now I realize that Blue Mail is an option as well as TypeMail app that I use on my android phone. TypeMail, I just learned, is available for Windows as well. Blue Mail seems more promising as it has a calendar as well.

HOW IS THIS NOT A THING IN 2021

I've stuck with POP3 for so long in order to have a unified mailbox - now Microsoft Outlook support is telling me to change to IMAP to solve the problem of my emails not syncing reliably across all devices, but I have to check six inboxes separately! I don't think so - Microsoft please get your act together! This is no way to run my business.

I reckon Microsoft wants us to wait at least 5 years before they do anything about this embarrassment, lol. The unified Inbox is nicely implemented in Outlook on MacOS. Outlook on my Mac now looks way better and way more modern than on my Windows machine. On MacOS Outlook I have All Accounts where I can see all Inboxes, Sent items etc. The MacOS Outlook also sports a New Outlook toggle to give Outlook a fresh look that matches MacOS 11 aka Big Sur. I guess this all is done to compete with the built-in MacOS Mail application. Meanwhile... Windows users are left in the dark since no such competition exists built-in directly on Microsoft's own!!! Windows OS. You would have to go to a 3rd party mail client and I guess this is not enough incentive for Microsoft's strategy team. Once again, embarrassing but if 3000 to 4000 votes over 5 years is not enough, I guess Microsoft's upper management simply doesn't care!

I have had to move to Blue Mail to get Unified Inbox, Unified Sent, Unified Spam, Unified Trash. Makes everything so much easier especially emptying trash and deleting all spam with one click. Will remain with Blue Mail until MS wakes up and provides an absolutely necessary feature.

The Mac version has this, why not the Windows version of Outlook 365?

Have to throw my vote in on this one too. Hard to fathom a solid unified inbox is not available with Outlook. Our clients started looking at other options and found that EM Client has a nice unified interface which I'm sure MS could emulate. Mailbird also. As a Microsoft house it is quite disappointing to see Outlook so far behind in delivering what so many users are asking for.

Why is it different on mobile? I manage multiple emails and it gets supremely frustrating to navigate through all of the folders to locate messages sent and received. Its available on mobile why not PC???? And fix the crummy search feature!

This is an important feature. Out clients ask for it all the time and our clients point out that Apple mail has this feature.

Outlook on ther platforms have unified inbox, therefore it doesn't look good on Microsoft and its people that Windows users do not have this tool or anything close to it? Please address this omission quickly. Thank you.
