Accessing group/team for attachments in email
Can't access the group/team onedrive to attach documents to an email. This is a MAJOR issue.

Thanks for the feedback! We’re working on bringing access to group files for attachments to the beta experience.

Glad to see it's being worked on now. It's very cumbersome to switch to old Outlook whenever I want to send a smartlink from a Team/Group instead of attaching a file.

Later... the whole web experience is still too disjointed. I've just opened a Word document online. I now want to compose an email to send it. Very cumbersome - share doesn't have an option to send as attachment - just sharing a link. So I open OWA (new or old) and have to navigate through a pretty dire interface to find the document I've just opened. It's just horribly user unfriendly.

Agree with the other posts. This is a major step backwards for those working in Outlook on the web. You are almost forcing us to carry on using network locations/WebDAV. In addition, why isn't the attachment system able to also hook into the files you've recently opened in one of the Office applications? Like Outlook desktop can - it's not like the list of recent files isn't stored in the cloud already.

Another vanishing feature that worked well in the old interface. Please Microsoft OWA is not a minor tool. You cannot remove that many features/function with the new interface. My main argument for deploying 365 is that changes will be gradual and will bring new features without disrupting business. If I had been in production instead of on a pilot project it would have result in a riot here. The new interface is currently at best an alpha version as far as I am concerned. So many thing that where fine are just missing/broken.

I agree. End users expect to be able to attach a file from SharePoint to an e-mail they wish to send. That is just what end users are used to.
