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

It is almost impossible to use without unified mailbox

I totally agree. This is a must! a unified inbox is something nearly every other email client manages without a problem. Even the windows 10 mail app can now do this. Come on Outlook team sort it out!!

This is needed as a matter of urgency. Office 365 is sold for business purposes but to not be able to amalgamate all incoming mail to one folder is a real downfall. Please Microsoft do this as a matter of urgency.

I thought moving from POP3 to IMAP was supposed to be an improvement. The lack of this feature in Outlook makes it a real backward step. Even my iPhone can do it!

Definitely should be added as the handy feature - exactly as the other mail clients already do have.

Purchased office 365 as I was told by the tech guys at PC World it would be better than using Windows Live Mail. What a mistake. A waste of money the subscription. I shall not be renewing after the year is over.

It's great to be able to add your comments here on this subject but is anyone at Microsoft paying attention to what is being said? A response here from Microsoft would be appreciated.

It is absurd that Outlook does not already do this. I can do this in Mailbird, Postbox, and even Windows Mail!

If it can be done in outlook for mobile, get it done for outlook on pc...

Yes PLEASE add a feature to unify IMAP inboxes. People (including me) are increasingly moving away from managing email through folders and rather using the search function, and grouping mail all in one place. I use SEVEN email accounts for various reasons and the only way I can manage them properly at the moment is via POP setup merged into one .pst file.

Hi, I've three distinct IMAP mailboxes, and it could be easier to consult them if it was possible to merge all of them in a single "Inbox"

I am furious that the ability to have multiple email addresses in one inbox has been removed. There are TOO TOO many folders. This is so awkward and unhelpful. Come on Microsoft!!!

Mailbird also does this and it is the leading email program. Microsoft can do this obviously, the question is WHY do they not want to do it. I have been using outlook for many years, since before the Lotus email application died and now you folks are behind development of a small company like Mailbird?????

if you manage multiple e mail accounts it would be handy to have them all appear in in box just like the old out look did
