Jan 26, 2015 - Susan Harkins shows Outlook users the many ways to sort and view email by their accounts. The best way to manage multiple accounts in Outlook 2007 and earlier. For each account, you'll have a dedicated Inbox. Raspberry Pi-sized LattePanda Alpha runs Windows 10, offers MacBook-like specs.
When an account is migrated/transitioned to Office 365, a unique mail folder (named the same as the email address of a consolidated email address) is created in the Office 365 account which will contain every folder/email from the consolidated account. Important: DO NOT START moving folders/mail until you receive a message for each account that is being consolidated telling you that the account has completed the migration process. In the example below, Bucky Badger has two email accounts ([email protected] and [email protected]) which are being consolidated into one Office 365 account. Both contain email data.
Note: To expand the folder structure for each account, click the left arrow next to the email address folder name. In, if you have not already, expand your folder list to. Once you've performed this step, your view will match the below image for what the mail screen will look like after the transition to Office 365. As you can see, there are two unique folders created within his Office 365 account. A description of what you are seeing follows: Bucky Badger This is the name of the Office 365 account.
[email protected] This is a folder which contains all folders/emails that were transitioned for this account. [email protected] This is a folder which contains all folders/emails that were transitioned for this account.
Note: To expand the folder structure for each account, click the left arrow next to the email address folder name. Clicking on the folder name will not expand or show any emails/folders. Important: All new mail is arriving into the Inbox under the 'Bucky Badger' account. You can organize e-mail messages, appointments, meetings, contacts, and tasks in your mailbox by moving or copying them. For complete details on how to manage folders, see:. Important: If you plan on restructuring your folders/emails, using Microsoft Outlook to connect to your account, we highly recommend performing this action within Outlook on the web prior to configuring and running Microsoft Outlook to reduce the impact of syncing your folders/emails within Outlook. Remember, the folder names ( [email protected] and [email protected]) you see are only names of each folder.
They can be renamed to whatever you like. If you are okay with keeping things as they are, then there is no need to make any further changes. All you will need to do is think about how you want to restructure your main account folder list and any new mail arriving into your account (maybe by setting up some rules (filters)).
If you'd like to re-create rules (filters) in your accounts, please refer to the following documentation: See Also:.

Is there any way to change the order that multiple accounts are shown in the left (folders) pane of Outlook 2016 Mac's main window? Or do I have to delete the topmost account and add it again to move it lower in the list? Here's more info about why I want to do this: I'm a new user of Outlook Mac 2016.
I added two mail accounts (work and personal) and I want to keep them visually separate in Outlook. So I unchecked the 'Group similar folders, such as Inboxes, from different accounts'. But now my personal email account (that I added first to Outlook) is on top and my work account is on the bottom. I'd like to reverse this order because I spend more time on work email and want to keep it on top. In the PC version of Outlook I can just drag one account above another. But that doesn't work on the Mac version.
Is there another way to reorder the accounts in the Mac version? I know I can just delete and re-add my personal account, but I was hoping to avoid having to wait hours for it to sync years of email. I wanted to know the same thing.
I searched and couldn't find an answer. I finally figured it out myself. You can change the 'default' account and it will go to the top. Go to Tools, Account and then select the account you want to be the default. Click the gear at the bottom and select 'Set as default.' Then, the remaining accounts will be put in alphabetical order.
You may need to exit Outlook and reopen it to see the new order. This works better than deleting the top account - letting the items shuffle and then adding the other accounts below since the sort order doesn't always follow the order of addition to the app.
Especially if you have delegate accounts you're adding.
