conversation settings sent
Please give us the option to turn off seeing Sent emails in conversation view. I can't stand seeing sent emails in a conversation view. If I want to find a sent email, I'll go to Sent Folder.

Use native contacts on macOS
The recent update enabled contacts however they are exactly the same as always, I still cannot access my apple contacts from within Outlook which means there is no way to store my iPhone and Outlook contacts in one place (I sync these across from iOS too)

My Computer Contacts
In current Outlook, my contacts are in the My Computer folder. New outlook does not display them.
How can you design a "New" Outlook that doesn't have same functionality of the Old Outlook.
And when the Old Outlook is no longer an option, how do I get my contacts?
Bad design.

Return Organize by Categories and Collapse/Expand All by Sorting method
I really do like the new design, but there are 2 fundamental features that made Outlook stand above all other email client and really make impractical to use the new Outlook at work for e-mail:
I would like to request that these 2 features ( or similar new version) be added:
- The Ability to organize by Categories
- Able to Collapse/expand all e-mails by the selected sorting method
The use of categories became irrelevant if you cannot organize or search emails by them, and if hundreds of e-mails every day, it is a nightmare not been able to collapse…267 votes -

Make it possible to create local folders "on my computer" to save email to. Previous versions allowed this.
In the current version of Outlook for Mac, users can create folders "on my computer" to organise/drag/drop specific emails into. This functionality is not currently working in New Outlook for Mac.

Sync limit
The new Outlook client seems to be limited to syncing six months of email. I can't find the sync limit anywhere. I keep switching between the two Outlook clients depending what I am searching for.

Color Coding email accounts
Like Spark Mail, or Canary Mail, the ability to color code email accounts. Would appear color coded in left nav bar and also with an indicator in email list.
Why? Makes it real easy to see what account an email came in to.

Include archive, delete, and flag buttons in mail notifications
When the notification window is displayed for new incoming email, please include buttons to quickly archive, delete, or flag the new incoming email without having to go to the main outlook window. It would be nice to be able to quickly delete incoming email if we don't want to read it, right from the notification display.

Unify the look of the sidebar on Mac and iOS.
Pls apply the same design on the mac app's sidebar as it's already seen on the iOS and iPad OS app versions.
But it's already designed and shared with the public around 2 years ago:

Add option to remove email date groups in inbox
I keep a pretty clean inbox, and while I like the overall design of thew new Outlook's Inbox area a lot of screen space is wasted to these "This week", "Last week", etc" identifiers that are just not needed.
Please let me turn them off, like you could in old Outlook (via unchecking "Show in Groups" setting).
