I want my Personal folders under my Outlook Today, but
they are flipped in the folders list view. Does anyone
know how to fix this?

Thanks,
Jeff
 
Click (highlight) the folder you want (press left mouse
button and hold) then drag/move it where ya want it.

Click to expand...

Folders are presented in alphabetical order. If your Personal Folders have
a name alphabetically prior to what appears in the brackets following
"Outlook Today" then they'll be listed before "Outlook Today". Otherwise,
they'll appear after.

This only allows me to put folders into folders, it does
not allow me to reorder them. You could drag and drop
your entire Outlook today into your personal folder
(although I'm not going to try) but it doesn't seem to
let you reorder them. This works in the Outlook Bar but
not in the folder list.

All the computers I've had have following the alphabetic
ordering as you mention below, however my new laptop
seems to think "Outlook today" comes below my Public
Folders and my Personal Folders. To make it more
interesting Personal comes before Public so it is not
totally revered, just my Outlook Today is showing up at
the bototm of the list. Is there a way to rename it so
that it pops up at the top?

Thanks,

I renamed my Personal Folders "zPersonal Folders" and
that seems to have done the trick.

Thanks,
