Problem saving emails in New Outlook
Hi Boah1717,
unfortunately, the new version of Outlook does not currently support the ability to open or save .msg and .eml files.
How can I save emails from the new version of outlook? - Microsoft Q&A
You can give feedback directly to Microsoft from your new Outlook client by going to Help > Feedback, and then select from the options in the pane. Select Submit when you're ready to send.
*Feedback won't be available if the Optional connected experience isn't turned on.
To turn this on, go to Settings > General > Privacy and data > Privacy settings and select the toggle for Turn on optional connected experience.
Contact support and provide feedback in new Outlook for Windows - Microsoft Support
thanks LeonPavesic for trying to help. I will leave it open for now in case anyone else comes up with good workarounds. Saving an email is such a basic need, it's hard to believe Microsoft would come out with a 'new outlook' that can't do it easily!!
