    What's the status of this change to allow for tracking the response if the user selects "Accept Do Not Send a response"?

     

    Thank you - Jack

Would love to know if this is still in the development roadmap. Thinking of ways to reduce email traffic both from a productivity perspective and also a carbon perspective. I wonder how many emails can be prevented per year per user through a feature like this? Seems like a quick win to me.

satnam99 Hello Satnam99, No. it is a dead end. It was probably always a dead end, with MS support just paying us lip service. I believe they changed it on the web platform but not on the oh-so much more widely used desktop app. That suggests it was too difficult a fix for them. I thought it might be amended in Windows 11 or whatever they put out next but I forget how many years ago I requested this change and If anyone else is reading this... we'll just have to check out the next version and hope they have seen sense.

    Yep agreed and they don't even give you lip service, they just ignore the issue and hope people will stop complaining about it BUT it is affecting everyone using the desktop app. I feel like it is in the too hard basket as it's a design flaw and they don't know how to fix it.

      This is really sad that Microsoft does not have a solution to this ongoing issue and they don't reply to any posts/blogs. It is actually a joke and just goes to show that Microsoft has no idea how to keep customers happy.
