Windows 10: Cannot Link iCloud mail account to Linked Inboxes in Windows Mail

WINDOWS 10 MAIL APP : MULITPLE EMAIL ACCOUNT LINK INBOXES ?

Just found this old question in my threads...

The Linked Inboxes feature has returned to Outlook Mail App in November 2015.

It now works just like in Windows Phone 8 mail app:

• Start Outlook Mail App
• hit the 3 dots in lower right corner
• select "Manage accounts"
• hit "Link inboxes"
• select inboxes to link
• enter name for linked inbox
• hit "Save"

Thank you Microsoft for bringing this feature back! It took some time but the new Outlook Mail App keeps getting better and I think it now includes all features from the old WP8 mail app.
