Yep, this morning still nothing on Fast Channel. But I was able to get it from the Slow Channel.

    Our apologies; we are having some technical difficulties with the release.  Please stand by while we get this sorted out.  I'll repost here when it is available everywhere.

      Hi, everyone:

      You should now be seeing the update available in both Fast and Slow Insider channels. It turns out that there was a propagation delay in our publishing service, so it just took a longer than usual for the update to get through the pipeline.

      We look forward to hearing your feedback on these new features!

        Still early days, but the "See your missed IM messages" right now seems to be working really well. Before I often would get the message that company policy prevents from it being seen. So far haven't had that yet. Which is excellent as now when someone IMs me and I missed it I do not have to ask them to resend it.

         

        Also seems to be a lot better in keeping the conversation within a window. Haven't had it happen yet that when I'm IMing with someone it suddenly then appears as a new conversation. 

         

         

        Question now is, as the issue for missed IM messages is now being worked upon. Can we then also see in the near future tabbed support for this?

         

        Thanks.
