    how are you not able to have multiple email accounts in the same inbox??????????????? it's not 1995

    It is ridiculous that in 2018 a couple of devs in a garage (ie startup) building an email client can figure out how to provide a unified Inbox for multiple IMAP accounts, but the Outlook team at Microsoft cannot. I understand development priorities, but this is long overdue.

    It works really well on my Mac. I prefer the Outlook calendar but too hard to keep track of all incoming mail

    Still using (and recommending to all my students) Thunderbird (and Apple Mail on a Mac). I will switch to Outlook as soon as there is a unified inbox for IMAP accounts. Without that feature this piece of software is a no go.

    Microsoft, please include this option for Outlook: combine multiple inboxes in one folder. Thanks.

    Please provide an update for a unified mailbox for multiple IMAP accounts: as Outlook for Mac 2011 has done. Thank You
    I've just moved from XP/2007 to 365/2016 version of outlook and it's a giant step backwards.

    Moving from POP3 to IMAP is supposed to be a step forward. Seems like a messy step backwards and now my Outlook is difficult to use. Why can it be possible on iPhone and iPad but not Outlook - c'mon let's sort this out!

    A requirement, not a luxury, for all outlook users with more than two IMAP accounts

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    You must make it possible as all other systems do to see all emails in the one inbox! It is a mess.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Would really help me. I want to switch to imap but cant until I get a unified in-box

  • Cgold commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Why does the MAC version have a unified inbox but not the Windows version???
