Quick Templates for Replies in Outlook
It would be incredibly useful to have a feature in Outlook that allows users to easily insert saved replies or text snippets with a simple keyboard shortcut or dropdown menu.
Key Ideas:
- Create and manage a list of reusable response templates
- Assign keyboard shortcuts or shortcut phrases to insert them quickly
- Support for both new emails and replies/forwards
- Great for customer service, internal approvals, or common responses

Hello Rikam,
It is unclear if you use Classic, New Outlook, or the Web version.
In Classic, Quick Parts allows you to create rich-text responses with tables and images. The user triggers the template with the first few words. However, the Quick Parts feature is on the roadmap for later in the year for New Outlook and web versions. Microsoft has not announced what the Quick Parts functionality will include.
