I just abandoned New Outlook. Going back to Classic, I see that there is not an option to have the mail separated into Focused and Other. Right now it’s All/Unread. I have gone through the options dialog to customize the ribbon. Now, in the View tab, I have a group called “Focused Inbox” but it doesn’t have anything that can be selected.

This is something that works out of the box on New Outlook. Unfortunately, there is a fair amount of other functionality that doesn’t – hence my decision to abandon it. For instance, my contacts have disappeared from People. 

Not sure if it matters, but my email, calendar, contacts are being pulled from gmail.
