In defence of modern attachments... suggestions?
Hello, I've ready MANY posts by people annoyed by the default attachment behaviour in Outlook 2016 (send as editable link rather than attach a copy). I know you can change attachments to copies q...
For me It is a very easy one it is to reduce mailboxe sizes and collaborate in the tools that are there to use. so Use mail only for text and Use SharePoint/Onedrive for shareing Files in 1 place and it is only 1 place of the truth. But i Understand if no adoption has taken place no announcements it is confusing and it is all about learning the new way of working.
That's a good point Paul. I think you are right, the thinking from MS must be that they are pushing people to use the collaboration tools. I like the 'one place of truth' idea, I may steal it!
You are right also about adequate training/announcements being needed. Typically, the exec who is angry with the change is the exec who couldn't find time to attend the adoption sessions before launch.

We've left the same feedback with the Outlook team, asking them to give us an option to set the default type of link (or even choose between sending a link or attaching the document). If or whether this will happen, I cannot tell, but you can harass your TAM if you are a Premier customer. Or leave feedback on Uservoice.
