Focused Inbox
Focused Inbox helps you focus on the emails that matter most. It separates your inbox into two tabs — Focused and Other.
If messages aren’t sorted the way you like, you can move them and set where to deliver future messages from that sender.
1. Select the Focused or Other tab.
2. Right-click the message you want to move and select Move to Other or Move to Focused.
To turn the Focused Inbox on or off:
• Select View > Show Focused Inbox.
