Block Replies to Self in a Conversation
Is there a way to prevent replying to myself when I reply in a conversation? That's the stupidest feature... I don't need to email myself, it's sitting in my SENT folder! Please update Outlook so I reply to the other party in the conversation, no matter where in the conversation I am. Thank you!

Give me an Option where I can add somthing top a Mail I had send before. So I don't have to reply to the Mail I send and change the recieving mail.

While replying to a previously sent email, the app pulls my own email address as Recipient. I fail to understand why would I want to send an email to myself! All other platforms handle this perfectly.
When replying to a sent email, all Recipients from the sent email should be pulled as Recipients in the reply.

Is there a solution to this? As others have agreed, it is very frustrating.

I need to reply to my previous reply. Today, if I reply to a single recipe, I cannot use the same reply, to add a second reply. Replay All is not available. Reply does a reply to my self 😕
Please provide a Reply All which allows me to put the recipe again in To. -

I hate replying to myself when I think I am replying to the sender. If I want to send a copy to myself, I will put my own e-mail address in there, or just look at my sent e-mails. This is SO STUPID!

I want the app to behave the same way as the web interface (OWA). That's it...

you should also give more space above. wow. when I'm in a conversation and I've already responded to their email and then go and try to send another email it makes it a note to self instead of allowing me to email the person I'm talking with in the conversation.

My idea was merged with this but it wasn't the same. I think the system should use the MessageID to identify notes with self vs. the "From" field. I got a decently convincing spoofed email that looked like it came from my own email that took advantage of this.

When the last email in a thread is by me and I want to send another message, this mail will be sent as "Note to myself" rather than to the previous recipient.
When in a thread, the Reply button should never refer to myself.

I'll never reply to myself. it's a two person conversation why are you forcing me to reply all. that's a waste of time.
