O365 - How to combine the Inboxes for four email accounts into a single Inbox

Hi @glnzglnz ,
As I know, a unified inbox or a combined inbox for all email accounts is not available in newer versions of Outlook as a separate feature.

However, as a workaround, Outlook rules could help forward the all the incoming emails to the one email account you want so that you could check emails in a single Inbox. Please configure your rules like below(if you do not want to keep the source email, you could add "delete it"):

when I reply, the reply should still show as "From" the original incoming email account, yes?

In this case, it will not automatically matches the original incoming email account, but if you have added all these email accounts into one Outlook profile, you could manually choose which email account to use when sending emails like below:

Hope this can be helpful.

That workaround is not acceptable for my setup, it really messes up the email chain to/from, etc. So I have just gone back to how I had been doing it before the OVER EXPENSIVE 0ffice 365 "upgrade" was forced on us all. I just use POP for all six of my former cheap POP accts, which are now expensive OFFICE365 email accts. I can't use the OFFICE365 features, other than the required security, because the Outlook has a large usability issue with not allowing configuration the way people prefer. But it does work the way it always did before, so its usable and minimally acceptable. I just use POP settings, and I can't sync between computers and phone, I just have to sync each and leave messages on server. Slightly painful in the implementation and technology, but at least it works the way I need it to work.

Hello,

If that can help anyone here's a video showing 2(~3) other workaround that doesn't require to "physically" transfer mails through the server (hence not creating new mails, waving the headers etc.) but are just searches and local file shenanigans : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpFSsovHgVo

Although, I am still desperate for the day outlook will add this basic unified folder feature...

For now I'm sticking with Thunderbird.

Have a great day.

Absolutely fxxking ridiculous that there is not an “All Accounts” inbox view that does not require a search… or moving things out of the box. My iPhone has the non native Microsoft Outlook app and it works better than the Outlook App on a native Windows machine.
