GPO Sync Slider settings
The current settings in the GPOs allow only a fixed cache period, which is now in Outlook 2016 more granular, what is great. But it woulod be beneficial to have two GPO settings regarding this:
1. The time frame of caching in month (existing)
2. If the user can change this within the defined time frame
So for example the GPO fixes 12 month caching, but with the second option, the user could lower to 6 month, but not beyond the 12 month.8 votes -
Provide an option or feature to disable KeyTips or ToolTips feature in Microsoft Outlook 2016
For multi-lingual teams, where communication flows in different languages, it is common to use Alt+Shift keystroke to change between written language.
At the same time desktop version of Outlook has KeyTips feature (tiny tooltips shown next to UI buttons and menus) which is also activated by Alt key.
Unfortunately, this KeyTip feature most of the type conflicts with the desire to switch the keyboard language.
When you try to be effective and type your email fast, in 80% of cases you activate KeyTips instead of changing language. If you keep typing you risk to trigger different actions, or loose emails.

Enable Contact Support, and Send a Smile, and Submit Feedback, and other feedback to all Office 365 subscription channels
The best way to prioritize and fix issues in MS applications is to freely allow all users to tell MS when things are broken, directly from the application - quickly and easily. Users should not have to go log on to some community to report an issue, they should not have to contact their office 365 administrator. Users should be able to send feedback and report issues everywhere, on every page and in every corner of the application Then MS will know what problems are affecting the most users and have a better handle on how frustrated the users are…

Outlook recently stopped using the pinned icon when starting
I have the Outlook Icon pinned to my taskbar. I have this and other icons arranged on my taskbar in a certain order. I use the applications the Icons represent frequently and am more easily able to find what I need by going to the icon and clicking it instead of using Alt-Tab. I can't say exactly when this started but now when I click on the icon, it creates a second identical icon once the application has started. I must now click that second icon to switch to it. Clicking the original one gives the error that only one…

Provide an option to store quick parts and signatures in the PST file in Microsoft Outlook 2016
I would like Outlook to store the quick parts and signatures in PST files, because it would make a re-installation much easier. Some days ago, I must have reinstalled my PC, but I did not know, that quick parts and signatures are stored somewhere else than in PST, so I lost this information (because I backed up only my PST file).

Provide an option to edit contact while it was added instead of adding again
When a member has been added to the contacts it is still showing when you hover the mouse to the 3 dots under the name of that recipient/sender that you still have an option to 'Add to Contacts' although it is been added already wherein it should be Edit Contacts.

responsive design
Outlook is generally awful in split screen mode. It should be redesigned to respond more fluidly (like websites) when the size of the window is altered.

Allow us to LOG OUT!!!! I am trying to add several accounts e.g. work, personal ... you won't let me slog out of the initial account!!!
Try replacing working applications with ones that are better - not worse!!!! There's no way any reasonable audit comes out with Win 10 as being more usable than prior releases. Can we get rid of the childish low IQ presentations please?

Quick Access feature Additions/Enhancements that majority will appreciate and praise Microsoft for (Except maybe the development teams)
This would likely be categorized as a quick access feature.
Having the ability to perform general tasks while using the least amount of time would be the greatest enhancements anything can get.
The ability to find and group quickly specific keywords, terms, numbers, letters, names, dates, sizes, and just in general all related emails very quickly in the real world of business and personal matters outweighs the need for more functions since if we work faster we progress faster we accomplish more faster and ultimately everything else will come into play "Quickly" after that.
