Forward\Reply\Reply All with attachments included in Microsoft Outlook 2016
In Microsoft Outlook 2016, when we forward\reply\reply all to the email with attachments, the attachments are not available and we have to attach them manually. An option to reply all to the email with all the attachments included would be more productive in Microsoft Outlook 2016 as that option is not available as of now.

Unify To-Do List items and Tasks
I think many of us business users get our work actions from e-mails, and it is quite easy and efficient to flag an e-mail for follow up.
However, flagging e-mails in this fashion doesn't actually turn them into Tasks, but merely a To-Do List item with limited functionality. For example, To-Do List items cannot be assigned to someone else, which is highly inconvenient if you want to pass on some work to a colleague. You also cannot keep track of work assigned to someone else, even if they have shared their Task list, because To-Do items don't appear there.

Undo Send (10 second delay before sending) like Office 365 version
The online version of office 365 allows you to set a rule/setting that will allow you to undo a send for up to 10 seconds after hitting send. Please give that feature to the full version of Outlook.

email address
Always show the full email address of a sender in the view pane. This is a major security risk that the email address of a sender is hidden and requires several clicks to view. Default should always be to show the full sender email address.

Task due date should be automatically added onto Outlook Calendar
If you enter a task with a due date, it should show up in your calendar as either an all-day event or an event at the time assigned (if applicable). When the task is complete, it should update in calendar with the strikethrough formatting.

Why did the Instant Search Bar dissapeared?
Since the last update I can't find how to view the Instant Search again.
Before it was on top of the folder email's list but now it's not, and I can't find a way to reactivate it.

Add Snooze in the desktop version of Outlook, not only in the Web/browser version
The ability of snoozing an email is available in Outlook for the web/browser version.
There are third parties that allow you to snooze emails in the desktop client but no native implementation.
Thanks

Rethink the direction Outlook is going
The look and feel of Outlook as well as most of the other office applications is continuing to look worse and worse. It's becoming much more childish looking and less professional looking. Many of the sections take up way too much space on the screen. The most recent change to the top of a new message looks totally ridiculous. Why either boxes around To, CC and BCC and not around Subject for example?
Users should also be able to adjust the space between items in the Folder Pane, there is way too much whitespace between items and you have to…

It is difficult to know which folder one is in without the title in the title bar. The rest of Office still does this.

Out of Office
The option for Out of Office for multiple dates should be available/ to set up an automatic Out of Office message if calendar dates are booked as Holiday. Most people have to book holiday early in the year and therefore already know their holiday dates. They do not, however, always remember to set Out of Office before they go.
