How to configure which emails show up in my Focused Inbox in Outlook?

Newer versions of Outlook present a "Focused" view of your inbox, that tries to sort emails that require your attention (e.g. from people you frequently correspond with) into a "Focused" inbox and emails that aren't important (e.g. email from mailing lists) in an inbox labeled "Other". On the whole, it does an okay job. However, it's far from perfect--sometimes important emails end up in my "Other" inbox, while some unimportant emails end up in my "Focused" inbox. Is there a way to configure Outlook to change what it categorizes at "Focused" and "Other"?


Solution 1:

If you need to fine-tune your Focused Inbox, Move to Focused and Move to Other options are available to do that. You can choose Move to Other/Focused if you want only the selected message moved. Choose Always Move to Other/focused if you want all future messages from the sender to be delivered to the Other/Focused tab.
