Hello,

I have several standard message templates that I currently access from the Home ribbon by clicking New Items->More Items-Choose Form. In the Choose Form dialog I change Look in to User Templates in File System and I can choose the template I want.

How do I do the same in New Outlook?

Thanks,

Paul

    I've been toggling back & forth the past few days between the old outlook desktop and the new outlook.

    I have found the templates in the new outlook.

    If you are creating an email you can click on the three dots "..." in the top right corner of your message and it will bring a drop down menu. The "My templates" item is there to select. I was able to click on it and the templates that I use in the old version of outlook are available for me to choose from.

    I'm using the online version right now. Since the versions look a lot alike has anyone tried:

    1. Select New Mail
    2. Select Insert from the menu
    3. Select Apps

    While that is a help, and can be useful, it lacks the functionality of the old templates.

    For example:

    1. It cannot save the subject of the email
    2. It cannot save attachments
    3. it does not save recipients (the old templates saved any number of recipients CCed or main)

    Unfortunately this is for the old Outlook. Doesn't work in the New Outlook.

    The template feature is missing in New Outlook. Please vote for the issues in the Feedback Portal to show interest in this!

    New Outlook Needs Templates · Community (microsoft.com)

    Email templates fix · Community (microsoft.com)

    This is a MUST for many companies to make the transition to New Outlook! Especially the abitilty to distirubute default templates (designs).
