Suggested Reply - Eliminate text recommendations or make them opt-in only
Suggested words and phrases suddenly started appearing for me in my Outlook for web a few days ago without any prior communication or action on my part, and without my consent, either.
They are annoying and intrusive, and forcing them on me was presumptive, rude, and hateful.
I know exactly what I want to say and take great pride in my writing and my editing ability. When I want input from others, I will ask for it. I DO NOT NEED (NOR WILL I EVER WANT) SUGGESTIONS from an automated AI.
Please disable them and only make it an opt-in…

STOP IT!
Stop the auto-fill/auto-type function. It's bothersome. I don't need Outlook to decide what I'm trying to say!

Pinned messages do not show preview or sender
In the old outlook pinned messages would show the same things as a normal message, however now they just show the title. Now I have to open up each email to remind myself who it was from and what it was about...
742 votesHey all, thanks for your feedback. We changed the pinned items to occupy less space so that you could still see new messages in your inbox even if you had a lot of pinned items.
We assumed that by pinning the items, you would know what the email was about so you’d need less information on the message.
We’ll track this item and figure out whether we want to change it in the future.

Upgrade to Office 365 with premium Outlook features
"Upgrade to Office 365 with premium Outlook features" - why do I see this in the bottom-left corner of my screen? We're on M365 Business. Clicking the link directs me to buy O365 Home. Should I downgrade?

Disable autocomplete in email body
Here's an idea: allow people to opt-in to new features.
This new autocomplete feature showing up today in the email body is ABSOLUTELY awful. What a terrible idea. It's distracting and seems to have made my typing in the email body sluggish. Is there a way to disable this nonsense?

Auto deletion or bulk deletion of items in Office 365 group mailbox when it no longer has enough capacity
It would be great if we could delete items in the O365 group mailbox at once by using item retention policy, or if items can be automatically deleted when the O365 group mailbox capacity is almost full. If the mailbox no longer has enough item capacity, we need to manually delete items or recreate the Office 365 group which is time consuming for us.

Bug displaying email from qq.com
When receiving email from qq.com , we start to see ? question marks in the mail for certain Chinese characters. Most likely the new outlook version does not use the default qq.com's gb18030 encoding method.
It was working before Jan 30th.

Want to request recipients to share their calendar when sending the calendar sharing e-mail to them in Ootw
We can request recipients to share their calendar with the Share Calendar option in the Outlook client for semi-annual channel. So, it would be great if Ootw would have the similar requesting feature for the calendar sharing.

Notification when other users edit event in a shared calendar
With the old Outlook Experience, you could ensure that any items added to a shared calendar by another person you were sent an email notification. The actual setting was "When someone updates an event or task on this calendar, send details of the change to:"
This seems to not be available with the new Outlook experience, or hidden somewhere that is not easy to find.
Could you please add this back in, as it is most useful for Shared Calendars, and available with other email/calendar services such as Google.

Want to complete the mail delivery with one session even if multiple recipients are included
I would like to manage the session break at will as I want to complete the one e-mail delivery with one delivery process. Currently, if one e-mail includes multiple recipients in “To”, “CC” and “BCC”, the email delivery session would be divided into several sessions and multiple delivery processes would be generated.

Add an end meetings early option
I love the "end meetings early" feature recently introduced into Outlook desktop. Being able to end meetings 5-10 minutes short allows more time for travel or bathroom breaks for people who have back to back meetings. Can we have a similar feature in OWA?

Have the option to have more formal or casual suggestions
It would be nice to have a choice between casual or formal ( I mean like a setting that you could change at anytime) because I noticed that some people want casual conversation starters but at the same time other people want more formal replies the reason I am suggesting this is because I am in school and if one of my teachers E-mail me something(like a link to a quiz) back I cant reply with something like " Gee thanks" but I also thought of the people who want something less formal something kind of like what's up or…

Mail merge
We need to be able to run mail merges through Outlook on the web, just like on the desktop app, so that we can use this functionality when working away from the office.
