New OUTLOOK - RESEND OF EMAIL - OPTION NOT POSSIBLE
C_Robertson Why on earth would Microsoft remove useful features from the new version of Outlook?
This isn't the only feature. In the old version, you could select a list of filtered emails, sort by sender, right click the heading and delete all the messages. This was quite useful. Not a thing anymore. Who randomly decides to remove time-tested features? Also, no indication as to where one can check for the current version or apply updates. You can find the version in Settings > General > About Outlook but there is no indication as to whether the version is current.The new version uses less resources but the lack of long-standing features is not a good move.
C_Robertson I went to MS Genius Bar this morning re opening a new folder (fault was new folder in grey and so unable to use) and resend. Nice people but had no idea of issues so had not been kept up to date on New Outlook.
Will go back to old outlook and only use New Outlook when need to use BCC which has been limited in numbers of send addresses in old outlook.
Reminds me of 30 years ago when Apple used to release updates and we all learnt not to download them for 6 months as it took that long for Apple to sort out the issues.
In this case MS just dropped New Outlook on me and I had no option on when to actually choose it. Surprisingly amateurish or non professional.
PeterP1412 I have been switching back to the legacy version for months because they do not have the ability to create groups or to resend group emails. But now I cannot find any way to toggle back to the old version. Really frustrating!!!
- on the Mac, did you try going to "outlook" next to the apple and clicking on "New Outlook" which should uncheck it? This better keep workint, because I am in no way ready to use the new outlook, given this important missing feature! Why is this taking years to enable?
