This tutorial explains how to move emails to Focused inbox or Other inbox in Windows 10 Mail app. Moving emails is a native feature of Mail app. You can move emails in bulk to Focused inbox or Other inbox or move one email at a time. If you are moving multiple emails to Focused or Other inbox, then only the currently available emails are moved. On the other hand, moving a single email has two benefits: it can move only the current email and move the current email as well as automatically move all the future emails of that particular contact/email address.

The latest update of Mail app in Windows 10 brings Focused and Other inbox to help you focus on important and less important emails easily. However, if you think some of your emails should be moved to Other inbox or Focused inbox, then this tutorial is going to help you.

Before you move further, do note that this latest version of Mail app is still rolling out. If you haven’t received an update to try Focused inbox, then you might have to wait for some more time.

So you can first check if you have received update for Mail app, turn on Focused inbox in Windows 10 Mail app, and then move emails to Focused inbox or Other inbox.
