Always display what folder an email is located

When searching for emails, I would like the Folder to be added to the top column.

 

 

  • ccodreanu New Outlook and web versions display the folder location and category with search or category results.  This functionality has been available for quite some time.

    Dear Teresa,

     

    Thank you a lot for the explanation and prompt reply!

  • Right-click on one of the column headers, select Field Chooser > All Mail fields > find the "In folder" one and drag and drop it where you want it to appear. Then go to View > Save current view...

      VasilMichev the reply on this last message regarding this question directed a person to right click a header and then select field Chooser. Unfortunately when I right cllick on a header, I don't get that option. This is what I get and it's on new outlook. 

      How do I get a column that says "folder" across the top and it tells me what folder an email is in? Thank you for any help!

        From the Menu options,

        View -> View Settings -> Columns (click this) -> Show Columns ->

        -> 'Select available columns from: = All mail fields' -> 'In Folder' -> 'Add' -> OK

         

        After this, if you hover over search results, it will show 'In Folder' of that message.
