Make it possible to create folders in Outlook for Mac 2016 (google preview)
In Outlook for Mac 2016 ver. 16.7.0 when using Google G Suite (google preview) to connect, the function to create folders is not implemented.
This I think is a very essential and basic function that should take priority over other functions in coming releases.

Add setting to Show Details of email header (TO/CC/BCC) by default
Add an option in Settings to "Show" or "Hide" the email header details (TO/CC/BCC lines) by default, instead of requiring user to click "Show Details" for an email.
In the latest update, when viewing an email, the email header is now collapsed and all contacts listed on one line. This makes it impossible to know at a glance if you were on the TO list or the CC list, which is very frustrating. You have to manually click on Show Details for each email, and it doesn't remember your choice when you look at one again.
Please add an option…

Allow users to customise the touch bar
In spite of a similar looking request being marked completed, Microsoft has still not provided end users the ability to customise the touch bar. This is standard functionality in most modern Mac applications and is useful for many different good reasons, particularly for applications as sophisticated as the Microsoft Office suite - there is a lot of scope for customising to one's own workflow.
Please!! Let us customise the touch bar!!

Make the insert as text option available when attaching a file
When attaching a file, for example an HTML file, there should be a drop down option like there is on a PC, which allows you to insert the file as text into the body of the email. This will allow HTML emails to be sent from outlook without formatting being messed up and without using a third party email service.

Allow requests for Delivery and Read Receipts to be specified as a preference
The ability to request Delivery and Read Receipts was recently added to Outlook for Mac, but you have to remember to set these options for every message you send as they’re off by default. It would be great if it was possible to set theses defaults in the app preferences (as I believe you can do in the Windows version of Outlook), ideally on an account-by-account basis.

Dark mode on Outlook
Dark mode: I have it now on Outlook desktop. However, contrary to the web version, the emails still show white and it creates an unpleasant contrast.

Ability to import and export calendars
Please add the ability to import and export calendars in Outlook for Mac. It'd be great if the formats that one could import and export contacts to were the same as the options on Outlook on Windows. This would make it easy to transition back and forth, particularly for folks who are switching platforms for work.

Provide Touch Bar customisation.
Outlook build 170304 adds touch bar support for new MacBook Pros - but the location of SEND right next to ESC is dangerous. Please allow us to customise the touch bar (as you can for Apple Mail and other Apple apps) so that it can be removed or moved to a safer place. I'm fed up sending half-finished mails when my finger accidentally brushes the touch bar.
607 votesStaring with version 15.34 (170515) and later, the send button is now a popover, helping to safeguard against accidental sends.

Unhide show_in_navigation_pane column in Edit_Categories dialogue -- make category_name column width 50 percent
Problem = show_in_navigation_pane column in Edit_Categories dialogue is not visible
column widths for category_name is too wide. This moves show_in_navigation_pane too far to right.
No right-left scroll tool available to see additional column in Edit_Categories dialogue for Mac Outlook
The default column widths for the Preferences > Edit_Categories has the default width of the category_name column set to be approximately 100 percent of the width of the dialogue category selector.
Because there is no horizontal slider as there would be in the Windows version of the category_edit dialogue, the three columns the default width of the category_name column being defaulted…
