schedule sending email
Hi,
I'm surprise that this feature is not yet in Outlook. I would like the possibility to delay sending email to a specific time.
Thank you
551 votesI’d like to give everyone a somewhat complete update on this feature request.
The feature “Undo Send” has been available on Outlook.com for a while now. With it, you can set a small delay of up to 10 seconds when sending all your email messages.
Additionally, we plan to make available a bigger feature that is along the lines of “Schedule Send”. At the moment, I cannot provide a time estimate for when it will show up for you. However, we’re very excited and hopeful :)

On outlook 2016 I have set up a quick action where I can create a calendar or task directly from an email, copying all the content of the email to the event/task details. Could this be implemented onto the site ?

Block Sender
You marked "completed" the "Block Sender" item that had over 1100 votes and many more comments. The solution you gave does not work when the email is already in the "Junk" email folder. Right clicking on items in the "Junk" folder opens the email. It does bring up the "Block" function, but still opens the email. Again, your solution addresses emails that are not already in the "Junk" folder. Please reopen this issue and give us a way to block emails without having to open them if they are already in the Junk folder based on your spam criteria. This…

Keep Sorting when navigating between folders
When coming back to Inbox from another folder, the e-mails are no longer sorted by Sender, and revert back to default sorting by date. I want Outlook.com to remember how I want my messages sorted in each folder.

dark mode issues
The overall issue is darkmode is very hard to work with as a developer, until recently we could override certain things that were breaking but the recent update adds !important to the inlined styles so we can no longer fix the bugs it causes.
A few of the bugs that we’re facing include...
Light colours are adjusted but dark are not, leading to a lack of visual structure where contrast is being used.
When dark text is applied to a light background image the text is made light but the background stays the same making it very hard to read …73 votesWe’re working through these bugs, thanks for the feedback! We’ll have an update in the next couple months.
