How to UN-Alphabetize Folders in Navagation Plane

[Guest]

The Folders Listed on the far left of the navigation page in the email
program appear in alphabetical order - Calendar, Contacts, Deleted
items, etc.

On my old computer these folders were listed in the order as I wanted
them
to appear: Inbox - Outbox - Sent - Junk - Deleted items, which made
it
much faster for me to use. etc.

Does anyone know how to unalphabetize these folders so I can arrange them
as I personally use them? Thank you.

Right. The old PC used an earlier Outlook version which had the Outlook bar
along the left, while the version you're using now has the Navigation Pane.
Different display models.

You can't in most views. You can, however, use the Shortcuts view and add
the folders in whatever order you like.

Thank you Brian - In the old computer these were listed as "Shortcuts" but
the Tech guy who set up the new computer last week said he felt it would
corrupt Outlook if I turned then into shortcuts.

I think the tech guy is wrong.

He is. But rather than shortcuts, set up the most used folders on the
Favorites list, in the order you prefer.
