outlook, where is the new email button?

Which version of Outlook do you have?

In the new Outlook or the classic Outlook for Windows, click New on the Home tab. See the screen shots below.

Or you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+N.

In the new Outlook for Windows, the "New Email" button is typically located in the top left corner of the application window. It is represented by a button labeled "New Email" or an icon that resembles an envelope with a plus sign. If you are having trouble finding it, ensure that you are using the new Outlook interface, as the layout may differ from the classic version.

If you have recently updated your Outlook, you may also want to check the ribbon at the top of the window, as Microsoft sometimes rearranges features during updates.
