While setting up Outlook to deliver mail to different inboxes is a bit cumbersome, you can sort (or group) the Inbox by account (and then by date, for example) easily. It's not ideal, but at least all messages that belong together are together. Under Folder list, uncheck the “Group similar folders, such as Inboxes, from different accounts” box. Then, click the “X” in the upper-left corner of the dialog box to close it. Now, all the folders for each account are listed with the other folders for the same account, instead of grouped with similar folders from other accounts.
Create a new Outlook Profile. Exit Outlook. Go to the Control Panel and search for 'Mail ' - This should return: 'Mail (Microsoft Outlook 2013/2016) (32/64 bit)' - Click this and a new window will open called Mail Setup. In the Mail Setup - Outlook dialog box, click the Show Profiles button.
On the General tab, click Add. In the Profile Name box, type a name (this can be anything) for the new profile, and then click OK. Click Next for Auto Account Set Up. Be sure that the Always use this profile radio button is selected. Note: If you are performing these steps to create a 'new' profile because you are having problems with an 'old' profile, you will not remove the original profile as of yet. From the drop-down list, choose the new profile that you just created. You are now ready to open the new profile.
Open Outlook normally. You should see the following message: ' Preparing Outlook for first use Retrieving mailbox settings.' . Outlook should then open (In the lower right you will now see the words ' Connected to Microsoft Exchange') At this point you are done. However, Outlook is downloading a copy of your mail from the Exchange server. You will see it ' Updating.' Folders in the lower right.
You should allow this process to complete. You may stop it. But then you won't have access to all your mail if you then Work Offline. Follow-up: After 1 - 2 weeks, you can reopen the Mail control panel, click the Show Profiles button.
On the General tab, select the original Profile and click Remove. Upgrading to the latest version can fix Outlook connection problems.

I have recently switched from a PC to a Macbook Pro using OS X 10.9.5. I installed Office 365 and with it, Outlook for Mac, version 14.4.5 I have 3 mail accounts. One is an exchange account, one my long standing account with my ISP and one other POP account. All accounts have been installed and are working. HOWEVER: only my exchange account shows up in the navigation pane. Also in the navigation pane is a simple 'Inbox' but my other two accounts are not there.
When I click on the 'Inbox' in the navigation pane, the mail from my other two accouants show up in the next pane to the right, with the two names of the accounts and fold-up arrows to expand the messages in the inbox. BUT why would those accounts, not show up in the left side, navigation pane? And, how can I make that happen. Can't figure it out so far.
