From-name not working when sending E-mail from Outlook UWP app.
Update: For anyone interested, I got a response from Caitlin Hart (the senior program manager for the Outlook and Windows 10 Mail apps) on https://twitter.com/caithartMSFT/status/829404941647175681on Feb 9th, that they're looking into this issue, and that she'll post again when the have a build number where the fix will be available.
Also edited the original post with one additional report from answers.microsoft.com.
Fix is apparently going out to insiders soon. :-)
Update from Microsoft:
"The fix should be going out in a Windows update to Insiders soon, but I need to figure out which flight it will be captured in before I can give a better ETA".
The reason for the delay is that the bug have turned out to be outside of the Mail app, so the fix will be pushed out in an entirely new OS build as opposed to an app update from the Store.
Thank you to Lynn Ayres & Caitlin Hart at Microsoft for taking the time to provide me with this information."For the fix of from-name issue in https://twitter.com/hashtag/Win10Mail?src=hashWin10Mail check Windows build 15042/3 flighted today" - Caitlin Hart
:D
Thanks for letting me know. So it's going to get to non-insiders in about a month?
I wonder if they will also fix the other two bugs that I told you about...
