Unfortunately, New Outlook currently only supports .eml export, which breaks workflows that rely on .msg files. A few workarounds:
If possible, switch back to Classic Outlook where .msg export works.
Use a VBA or Power Automate flow to auto-save emails and attachments separately in a supported format.
Third-party add-ins (e.g., Kutools, MessageSave) can help batch-convert .eml back to .msg or PDF with attachments intact.
At the moment, Microsoft hasn’t reintroduced full .msg saving in New Outlook, so these alternatives are the most practical.
