In the classic Outlook I can add Inbox folders of shared mailboxes to Favorites, easily detecting and accessing new emails sent to any of mailboxes I manage.
In the new Monarch Outlook, this is no longer possible as only my personal folders can be added to Favorites.

uername465 ok thanks for letting me know so does that mean the registry fix mentioned in this forum works even for a clean install where the previous version was never installed?
When a user logs into office.com with a MS 365 Business pro licence and installs the office apps they automatically get the new version of Outlook.
JMaartenW you can restrict users of your organization to use only legacy outlook.
An absolute joke, Only Microsoft can roll out new versions with less features and functionality then previous version. i have clients who work exclusively in their shared mailbox as default. they need it to be the default inbox for all emails and set it to favourite.
THIS NEEDS FIXING along with dozens of other issues.
or at least allow MICROSOFT users to download previous versions from office.com. but then they'd find very few people would upgrade...
Well... somebody has to support the 0.42% of the computers in the world. 😄
On the other hand, Windows 11 is trying desperately to look like Mac. So they have that going for them.
That's interesting potentially good news. Weird that they have it working on Mac before Windows
I saw that it was now possible on outlook mac desktop app.
Can't believe this still hasn't been addressed. I love the way everything looks compared to the old version, but I just can't justify making the switch until this function is added.
Oh yes! Comes as no surprise though, seems even the most basic things takes litteraly 4-EVER to implement and in the meantime the users are going crazy, gives up and goes back to the old version in anger. It's really sad because a lot of stuff are actually really great in the New Outlook.
This is crazy how is this so difficult to add?
Just tried new outlok again., just to be confirmed this is still missing. Rolling back i guess 😞
