How to Set up Folders in Outlook.Com
When you want to organize your email, move messages to folders that contain similar or related messages. For example, use folders to divide email into work and personal folders, or set up folders for each of your interests and responsibilities. You can set up one Hotmail folder for all the mail addressed to your Hotmail address to keep it separate from your Outlook mail or several Hotmail folders.
