Outlook for Mac needs to be cross-platform compatible, just like the other Office apps. Please add the ability to save and open .oft files and .msg files. Our Creative and Marketing Teams have both platforms and need to be access to these common features. Thanks!

I`m really disappointed with the lack of functions available for Mac Users. It makes work times harder to do. I have to spend hours searching work-around this lack Microsoft puts for Mac users, and even then, most of the time I can`t find a solution. So please, start developing these functionalities, as it should be seen as an Obligation for Microsoft since Outlook is the most used electronic-mailing.

Sería muy interesante que los que tenemos comprada la versión de Office para Mac podamos usar las plantillas de correo electrónico que hemos creado previamente en Outlook de Windows.

Sería interesante poder utilizar las plantillas de correo electrónico creadas en Outlook en un ordenador Windows también cuando cambias a un ordenador Mac y utilizas la versión comprada y de suscripción de Office para Mac, puesto que todas las plantillas que se habían creado ya no sirven en Outlook para Mac.

I can't save or edit .oft files for my org and we use email templates for a lot of time saving tasks. Because I'm on a Macbook, I'm stuck. This seems crazy to me. Please Microsoft, allow Mac users to create or edit .oft files.

Yet another place where Mac users get shortchanged by the Office offerings. Please give us parity with Windows function, or a lower price for lower function.

This is nothing but a strategic decision by MSFT to arm-twist apple users into buying windows device. It works as well, in my organisation I handle multiple roles. My workhorse is a MacPro, but for other MSFT related softwares I was given a windows machine additionally.

I have clients who are asking me to use their Outlook templates (created in the Windows version of Outlook) when sending in reports. I cannot do this using Outlook for Mac 2019 and once again feel that MS is not really focused on getting product parity between Windows and the Mac OS. Please, this needs to go to the top of your priority list.

Many features of current programs have been designed and upgraded based on customers’ feedback.
Your time and understanding will be highly appreciated."I found this response here https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/how-do-i-open-an-oft-file-on-mac/e6999adb-da9b-4487-bdb2-eaa2d712a10c
Unfortunately it has been almost 5 years and Microsoft hasn’t listened to our feedbacks like they said.

Outlook for Mac need to have that capability to export an .OFT file in Outlook for email templates. Currently Outlook for Mac is only able to generate .EML files which do not work when you give a PC user that file type to implement.
