A colleague is considering recommending to users to not create folders underneath their Inbox, but to rather create them at the root of the mailbox in Exchange since it is supposed to affect performance and can cause client and server side issues. It appears that there is an issue with Outlook 2011 for the Mac<http://www.valiant-ny.com/2012/10/outlook-2011-for-mac-and-exchange-sync-issues>, but I have never heard of this being a problem in Outlook 2010/2013 for Windows.
I have not been able to find any official documentation stating that Outlook for Windows has problems with folders under the Inbox. But, I wanted to ask the community whether there was any basis behind this and should we be recommending to our clients to not file folders under their Inbox? Thanks, -Aakash Shah
