Is it possible to move the Search Box in Outlook to another position ?
Hello, We found that the Search Box was moved into the title bar of our desktop Outlook 365. Is it possible to change its position ? Cheers

Nope. Although they've gone through several iterations on this, so it might change in the future.

Sorry for the necro - not sure if it's still relevant to you, but there's actually a solution:
Running this regedit, will get the searchbar back to the old location:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\ExperimentConfigs\Ecs\outlook\ConfigContextData]
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\ExperimentConfigs\FirstSession\outlook]
