My company has Microsoft Teams Version 23257.2616.2423.5046 (64-bit)/Client Version 49/23091420217.
It was last updated on 07/10/2023. When the New Teams selection is enabled I no longer have the ability to go to Saved Messages.
Anyone know where this feature went?
Thanks anyone for your valuable responses.

Hey Umar,
I'm aware that this a community forum and that the replies posted here aren't by the MS employees. The main reason for me to post here was a hope that MS might pay attention to what's mentioned in these communities. The next reason was to vent out my frustration with like-minded people who share the same frustration.
I completely agree with Boon here. I followed the instructions you provided and I couldn't find this new Bookmarks feature (see image below).
'Ctrl+Shift+B' doesn't do anything.
"Will be replaced later this year by a similar feature." is not present on the documentation anymore: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/OfficeDocs-SkypeForBusiness/commit/6885609435629aea64706000a5dcf4ed3f833123#diff-0a604170d2e12c068993c4f179f1f34aa5d3f337c7c0b76ac808e67062cc73bcR34
I seriously doubt if similar feature will be added at all.
Well, you are absolutely right Jikuja. Now it does not appear that Saved Messages will be replaced with a similar feature after all.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/new-teams-whats-changing
above is the article that has MS has used to convey the changes in the New Teams all along, and it no longer says that Saved Messages will be replaced by a similar feature." Instead it says the following
| Ability to save messages and files in Teams | The Save feature is no longer available. However, classic Teams users can download their saved messages and files to a local folder that they can open in new Teams. Learn more: Mark a message as saved in Microsoft Teams |
|---|
and the article linked as "Mark a message aas saved in Microsoft Teams" makes this quite clear and offers this feable attempt at placation.
There are several Microsoft and third-party applications that can be used as alternatives to the Save feature once you’ve switched to the new Teams.

Have we not learned our lesson... Microsoft ALWAYS listens to its community, then just does whatever it wants... So disappointing.

Microsoft please keep the 'save message' feature or something that allows us to track messages just like we do with flagging in Outlook for emails. I get alot of Teams messages in a day to alleviate the volume in my Outlook Inbox. We need an intuitive and easy way to track Teams messages. The 'save message' feature worked great. Why are you fixing a feature that is not broken? Especially, for those Executive Assistants who support several executives and get a high volume of requests by Teams.
