Pin or Stick important emails at the top of your Inbox
Option to be able to pin or stick important emails at the top of your inbox regardless of the date and time they were received when sorted by date. Also consider this scenario: Option to be able to pin someone automatically when we reply or send new mail.
We PIN all the “must” people in the CC so it will save our time in putting all the people in the CC every time we send mail. Plus, since there are a lot of “must” people to be filled out in CC, there may be some mistake to not include some people. We would like to avoid such problem.

The ability to pin related emails together, with different subject lines. So when you change view to conversations, it keeps the topic and various off shoot emails all together.

The online Outlook web client already allows users to "pin" emails to the top of their inbox, to make them easier to find without having to search or set a reminder. The desktop client lacks this feature, although it can be poorly substituted for with categories.

Add a "pin email" feature to track emails that allows you to pin emails in inbox such that they stay at top and you can address them. They dont get piled up on. in Outllook.

if you can pin emails based on rules in OWA, you should be able to do the same in Outlook.

Pinning needs to be available wherever I use Outlook. Just like SharePoint pinning now works in Teams.

I really enjoy using Outlook for Desktop but we need immediately this feature. Pin an e-mail to the top of screen is a tool I've been using everyday in Outlook Web, and I discovered I can't work without it anymore.

Please add the ability to pin an email to the top of the folder (Outlook for Desktop). I've wanted this feature for years. Just getting around to requesting it now and discovered this 4-year-old thread with 2301 votes.

This use to be a feature in the old Outlook for Posts (they even have the pin in the icon). Don't understand at all why it was taken away.
I would like the ability to pin emails or posts so that they will always appear at the top of what ever folder they are in. Muc heasier to keep track of important emails. I use posts this way to keep track of crucial information about the topic so I don't have to search for it.

It would be great to be able to pin individual emails to the top of email folders to keep track of them.

I completed the form (posted A YEAR AGO!) to help microsoft see how I would use the pin option.
In reading the form it looked as though the option to pin emails was already enabled, but it isn't in the desktop version. How is this so difficult for them to understand?? we would like it in the desktop version please.
Not everyone works from outside of an office, and It isn't even enabled on my android version either so either way to suggest that it is available is ridiculous.
Please add this to the desktop version of OUtlook (and I DON'T mean the web version - the actual desktop version that normal people use).

Outlook office has a tool to pin emails to the top. This tool could be added to the Outlook app. The pinned emails could be accessible in a tab similar to the Focused and Other tabs.

1) Instead of just "Red Flagging" an important email we should be able to colour the entire box.
2) It would be nice to be able to select emails to be locked at the topof your message list.
