Hi All,

 

I am an independent advisor responding to Outlook questions.

 

The Find Related message has been modified in the New Outlook and Outlook for the web. 

 

For example, you can Find Email from Sender by right-clicking on the email,  selecting Find Related, and choosing Messages from this Sender or Messages in this conversation. Note: It has always performed this way in OWA. (Revised on October 10, 2023, to reflect the latest updates. T. Cyrus)

 

 

 

For Find related messages in this conversation, you must enable the Group in Conversation Feature. You can click on the View Tab and Conversation.

 

If you find this information helpful, please mark it as the best response or like it, which will assist others with the same question.

I'm finding the option on the Right click menu but in the menu option "Find related."

    Hi svinton

     

    In late September's update,  Microsoft included the Find Related Message feature. Many users are happy. :happyface:


    You can right-click on an email and select Find Related.

      is this only from the main email list? I can't seem to find "find related" functionality from an email opened in a separate pop up window, or emails opened from my Tasks or Flagged email tracker. Its difficult to go back and find that email on the main inbox
