We have latest Outlook 2016 and the used PowerShell to make sure tenant had Focused Inbox as true and modern authentication, and yes, First Release and still no Focused Inbox.  What gives?  Thanks!

Are you on Outlook 2016 16.0.7967.2xxx? I believe that's the required version, it's still not available to our tenant despite FR Current Channel and Modern Auth.

        The situation here:

        • Full tenant First Release
        • Focused Inbox in OWA enabled and working
        • Focused Inbox in Outlook for IOS enabled and working
        • Modern authentication in EXO enabled
        • Office 2016 C2R Version 1704 build 8067.2115

        Focused Inbox in Outlook desktop still doesn't work...

        Am I missing something?
