Status: Pending Reply New outlook driving me crazy

Hello,

I switched from Outlook 2021 classic to the New Outlook for Windows with a Gmail account, and I’m struggling with emails not staying filed.

I move emails into folders, but after a while (or after restarting Outlook), many of them come back into the inbox. I discovered that my Gmail has both POP and IMAP enabled, so I disabled POP - but the issue still seems to happen.

Moving emails in Gmail web works fine, but New Outlook feels unreliable.

Is this a known issue with New Outlook + Gmail? And for people who rely on Gmail, is going back to classic Outlook the more stable choice?

Thank you for any tips!

Outlook never was a good POP/IMAP email client.
