How to Move Groups of Folders From the Inbox in Outlook 2007

Move email subfolders from within your Outlook 2007 mailbox.

The Microsoft Office 2007 software suite includes a professional email client called Outlook 2007. When managing your email in Outlook 2007, you can create subfolders for storing old messages. However, these folder groups are created within your primary inbox by default, which can make it difficult to keep your mailbox organized. Outlook 2007 allows you to move groups of folders out of the inbox and store them in alternate locations.

Instructions

1. Launch the "Microsoft Outlook 2007" program on your PC.

2. Go to the "Mail" tab in the lower left corner of the main Outlook window.

3. Click on the "'+" sign next to "Inbox" in the "All Folders" list on the left side of the window. This will expand a list of all the subfolder groups in your inbox.

4. Right-click on the folder group that you want to move from the inbox, and choose the "Move" option.

5. Highlight the new section of the mailbox where you want to store the selected folder group.

6. Click "OK" to move the folder and all of the items and subfolders it contains.
