Is it possible to move the Search Box in Outlook to another position ?

Nope. Although they've gone through several iterations on this, so it might change in the future.
dioadmin They actually did beta test it. I provided feedback then saying it would be a bad move. So, either they did not listen to feedback, or there were not enough people saying it was a bad move.
I imagine if enough people complain now, they'll either move it back or provide an option to configure location.
this just happened to me and it is awful. why have they kept it.

lynV5-- Ditto, what a bone-headed design choice this was! Outlook folks, please put the **bleep** search bar back where it always was, and revert the "functionality" back to how it used to work also!! What you used to easily accomplish with just a click and some typing, now takes multiple clicks in between typing in the search term, when you can even find the new search location (half the time my status bar covers it up)!!! Grrrr, just more lousy UI choices by MS, it's just awful.
