We’re happy to say “Create rule” from a message is now in the beta! Same as the regular version, simply right-click on any message and select this option. You can also view your entire list of rules (including those you created in your regular Outlook) by going into Full settings > Mail > Rules.

Currently you can only create a rule to move messages from selected senders to a folder, however, more options are coming soon!

Thanks for using the Outlook.com beta! We believe that this should work, but perhaps you need to update to Windows 10. This seems to be a common complaint with Windows 7.

Thanks for using the Outlook.com beta! I’m glad to say that you can already use Numbering instead of Bulleting when composing an email.

Sorry for the late response on this one! It totally fell off our radar to close out.

I just wanted to let you know that you can in fact bulk mark as phishing or block from the junk folder.

If you select multiple or select all you can use the not junk drop down at the top of screen and select block.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for trying the Outlook.com beta! For replies that are on the same screen (or inline), the Send button is beneath the reply box.

We moved the Send button to the bottom because as you type your email you’re moving from the top to the bottom. Hope this helps! :)

P.S: The shortcut to Send is also Ctrl+Enter on most systems. Try it!

Thanks for trying the Beta! We’re happy to say we do have a way to modify the order of conversations!

To set reading pane on top:
Click on the settings wheel and switch “Conversations” from “Newest on bottom” to “Newest on top”

To remove reading pane:
Click on the settings wheel and switch “Inbox layout” from “Show reading pane” to “Hide reading pane”

Thanks for your feedback! The behavior in the new Outlook.com experience should now match what you saw in the old version.

We’re happy to announce that search results now show folder tags. Clicking on a folder tag will also automatically scope your search to that folder.

First off, thank you for using Outlook.com and for taking the time to provide feedback!

I am sorry for any bugs or problems you hit in the new Outlook.com experience.

We have been working hard to address these issues. I just tested and confirmed that I am not seeing this problem any more.

Can you give it another try and report back by opening up a new feedback thread or contacting support from within Outlook.com?

Thanks

Thanks for your feedback. You could try hover over the message in the list, and it has a trash can icon for you to delete email without selection or preview. Hope that helps.

Thanks again for the great feedback. I just wanted to let you all know that we did add many more options to the Beta. Including Mobile Devices, Connected Accounts, Forwarding, Rules, and Junk settings.

Hope you all are enjoying everything we have added. Keep the feedback coming!

David Los

Thank you for the feedback, and reporting this issue.

I just wanted you all to know that we did a bunch of fixing and addressing bugs in the Print areas. One of these had to do with not properly printing pdf attachments.

I just tried printing out a pdf, and it worked. Please let me know if you hit any other issues. I will keep an eye out for any additional feedback here

Again, thanks for reporting the issue and using outlook.com!

Thanks for giving feedback on the Outlook.com beta! If I understand correctly, you’re not finding the formatting options when replying to an email.

The formatting toolbar could be shown and hidden from the reply experience. If it is hidden and you’d like to show it, simply open it (it’s beneath the reply textbox) to get access to the formatting options.

Again, thank you very much for all of the feedback on this issue. I am happy to let you know that this change is now rolling out. You should all be seeing it soon.

Please keep the great feedback coming.

Hi all – Just wanted to provide a quick update and let you know that this issue should be resolved. The next time you log into outlook.com you should now be able to paste emails from excel directly into the compose form.

Keep the great feedback coming!

Thank you for your feedback! Print is under “…” in the command bar (prints whole conversation), and under the drop-down in the upper right hand corner of a message (prints just that message.)

Hi all – First off thank you very much for all of the wonderful feedback on the Sender Photos / Initials (color bubbles next to email).

I did want to let you know that we have made some design updates that hope that they address some of the concerns. Also I wanted to let you know that you are able to disable them if you do not like them.

To do this Click on the Gear in the top right hand corner. And from the pane, select Sender Image to disabled.

Hope this helps!

There was a bug for a few hours which exposed the Outlook.com beta as an option for O365 users. This is now turned off. The beta is not yet ready for O365.

Thank you for your feedback on the Outlook.com beta! We really appreciate this usability feedback. The reply/reply-all/forward options are there under a menu in the upper right corner of an email, but we understand they are not discoverable enough for you and we are considering several solutions. We will reply when we have an update.

Update August 17: We are working on making the individual buttons readily available.

Update August 18: We have fixed this. Please don’t stop giving us your feedback on the Outlook.com beta!

Thanks for your feedback on the Outlook.com beta! We support this in the beta in the view with the reading pane off which you can access by clicking on settings. We are currently not planning on adding it to the view with the reading pane on, because the up/down arrow keys work on the message list in the same way. We will continue to monitor this feedback.
