Customize the ribbon
The ribbon can be customised in Word, but not in Outlook. For instance, the placement of addin could be chosen (e.g. webex, which is working fine, by the way), or the very bad placement of the "send and receive" is dramatic

I agree.. this needs to be an upgrade to Outlook.

Would be nice if you could just add the Thesaurus to the ribbon to the Tool bar or ribbon in Outlook so that we didn't need to before extra steps to access it.

So much inconsistency between Windows and Mac. They have separate development teams that purposely don't communicate. Come on Microsoft, customizing a ribbon or menu is a very basic requirement.

I just switched from a PC to a mac and need outlook. Outlook is so much easier to use on a PC - why can't it just be the same?
I need to make the font larger on the ribbon.
I also need to create new rules - I used to be able to just right click and make it happen. On Mac its a long tedious process

On my screen "reply, reply all and forward" get squashed into a single button - but useful Concur Expense, "send to onenote" and "send to slack" buttons are permanently there. Please let me remove these buttons!

"New Outlook" needs to bring back the ribbon. Please keep the title bar with the close, minimize, and zoom buttons separate from the ribbon and toolbars. In other words do not combine/unify the navigation/titlebar with toolbars (each should be discrete interface elements). The sidebar should not take up the whole window or cross into the tool bar/ribbon. Toolbars and ribbon should be full width of window.

Allow for customizing the Ribbon - It would help to be able to put send & receive near the new mail icon.

I cannot believe that such a simple task as reorganizing the ribbon is unachievable in this day and age

Truly ridiculous that this toolbar cannot be customized in a product as established as Outlook

I agree with adding the option to modify the ribbon. It would surely improve my user experience to have the toolbar icons I need without having to scroll the toolbar/ribbon.

Agree. I need to be able to prioritize one of my add-in by moving to the left and I can't do so.

The ribbon can be customized on PC but not Mac. Propose that they work the same between the versions.

I would add that the placement of "paste" next to "send" is a huge security concern. I've inadverently pasted information into an email as I passed by the button on my way to hit send and then have hit it with no time to fix.

Why isn't Outlook customizable and all other Office apps are? This needs to be fixed!

The outlook mail ribbon and tool bar on a MAC can not be resized. Not having this option creates an eye strain when working in this application.
