Search folders are being moved to the Settings experience in the new Outlook for Windows and web, improving discoverability and alignment with modern organization workflows. In addition, we are expanding supported search folder types, including mail with attachments, old mail, and large mail and more. Users will also gain the ability to filter search folders by specific folders, providing more precise control over how email is organized and surfaced. #newoutlookforwindows
