Description

Users can create Custom Search Folders in Outlook to automatically surface emails that match specific criteria such as sender, subject keywords, categories, date ranges, among others. Search folders update in real time and give you a focused view of the messages that matter most, without moving them from their original location. We will be pausing development of this feature for the time being. We apologize for any inconveniences. #newoutlookforwindows
