We definitively appreciate the redesign and it looks gorgeous. I hope that it didn't divert resources to fix more important issues such as :
- Support of alias/connected account : https://outlook.uservoice.com/forums/322590-outlook-2016-for-windows/suggestions/13457142-option-to-make-microsoft-outlook-2016-work-with-ou . 2 years still in the making.
- Support of proper MFA for Outlook accounts : https://outlook.uservoice.com/forums/322590-outlook-2016-for-windows/suggestions/11133915-use-the-native-service-authentication-like-the-mo. Also few years in the making.
- Proper integration with the notification center of Windows 10 (not the popups that are not integrated). I'm sure you could convince your colleagues in the windows team to introduce missing features.
- Proper support of dot not disturb/focus assist.
- Move to proper UWP or modern infrastructure so we don't have to restart the application if we have multiple monitors of different resolutions. See https://support.office.com/en-us/article/office-apps-appear-the-wrong-size-or-blurry-on-external-monitors-bc9f7279-4e42-4b15-a949-46ab8bcfe44f . MacOS (and Outlook on macOS) adapt perfectly without any restart/sign out. I hope that the design above is ready for high-dpi/multiple resolutions.
- Proper conversation support with quoting (also when replying, not like the current support) : https://outlook.uservoice.com/forums/293343-outlook-for-mac/suggestions/15492357-ability-to-quote-messages-with-standard-marker and https://outlook.uservoice.com/forums/293343-outlook-for-mac/suggestions/14747313-inline-quoting-and-indenting . See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style . Microsoft claims to <3 open source and all the open source mailing lists are using this type of conversations and email. A big issue in my corporation btw.
- Android notifications not clearing when I read my email on Outlook for PC. https://outlook.uservoice.com/forums/293346-outlook-for-android/suggestions/8744806-remove-email-notification-when-read-on-other-devic (over 2K+ votes from the community).
Globally I like Office 365 but Outlook on the PC has been lagging and lagging to the point that either we moved platforms (the Microsoft offer is better on Mac or iOS) or move service because it works better.
This is really good work, it looks slick.
