  1. A Do Not Disturb feature for "after hours"

    A Do Not Disturb feature for "after hours" would be great. if you could allow custom times, e.g. 8pm - 6am, that would be even better.

  4. Do not disturb when off work (inverse of the current, when at work)

    I want to not be disturbed when off work, i.e at home. Weekends are currently possible, but I want evenings as well. Just like the inverse of 'at work' do not disturb.
    The reason being: I don't carry my laptop to every meeting, but would like notifications when I get an email or have an upcoming meeting

  10. Shared mailboxes and exchange public folders are not irrelevant for an enterprise customer! Microsoft seems to ignore that in mobile envs.

    There's no way to access shared mailboxes and public folders in outlook 365 mobile. It's impossible to use outlook mobile in a corporate environment this way!

  14. add a simple switch/setting to mute notifications on your app

    Mute all notifications with a simple switch setting, or mute for a user-entered time (similar to out-of-office menu). This would be helpful for days when on annual leave when we don't want to be alerted of emails.

  18. If mobile.pipe.aria.microsoft.com is blocked the App flood the network with constant DNS Requests.

    I'm using one DNS Blocker and I noticed that when mobile.pipe.aria.microsoft.com is blocked the Android App (even while not open on the mobile) goes into a infinite loop of new DNS requests searching for mobile.pipe.aria.microsoft.com address every 10 secs.
    I had to uninstall the app to fix this problem.

  19. Match the folder structure properly instead of displaying them all in a random order.

    The app imports folders but a) orders them alphabetically, and b) doesn't synch them unless you do it manually. This sucks so much.
