Nsteinmetz - thanks for your patience. We have this fixed for OWA and Outlook Mobile. I will check back on the status for the Win32 client and post an update. Please stand by.

    Would love to hear if there are implementation estimates for Outlook for Windows. Any updates that can be provided would be appreciated.

    Our migration to Groups is still on hold as we're waiting for this change.

    Hi, 

     

    My colleagues and I are being tracked at home for their diligence to reading, responding, and clearing emails daily during these strange times. Each day an "Unread" or "Unseen" report is run and consequences may arise from having messages unchecked. 

     

    Our teaching community's biggest concern is messages "unseen" in the countless groups we subscribe to yet processed/read in the inbox. What can be done about this? It seems redundant to have to "read" and email twice.
