Did quick parts disappear with the new outlook? I can't access my old quick parts or make new ones.

Bring back Quickparts and dont make me have to rewrite everything I have created in the old outlook!

What a really unsatisfactory reply. Although it may all be true it is so poor to remove functions that clearly many people rely on. A work around is obviously possible but why should it be necessary. Product development should be a move forward not backwards.

Hey no offense intended, I like the New Outlook because it is so lightweight. It doesn't store local data, it is basically a slightly improved Outlook Web Access. Microsoft Outlook Classic was starting to resemble bloatware. It was trying to be something for everyone. We are currently migrating people to the New Outlook and people like me who enjoy a lightweight mail client love it, the power users don't like it so much. OR people who have built a workflow around the advanced features of Classic Outlook don't like it because their old workflows wont work with the New Outlook. So far we are approx. 50/50 in people being satisfied, however, I think Microsoft will pull the pin on the Classic Outlook because its codebase must be getting really hard to keep compatible with new OS features. So I am telling customers who hate it that they may have to adapt, because the classic one will disappear some day, just like Skype for business.

Please note that I and several other people us the Quick Parts on a daily basis. Taking it away is horrible and makes no sense. Isn't improving Outlook to make things better not worse?

No offense taken, but why not just use outlook Web if you like a lighter product?

There's folks out here (me included) whose daily work has been negatively impacted by a loss of functionality. If they needed an app version "like" Outlook Web, why not just create a version that allows the user to choose a "light profile" that shaves off the "fluff" they don't use? This gives the user the option to choose the profile that makes sense for their workflow needs. Everybody gets the version they need and nobody gets left in a lurch.

I think Microsoft can afford to keep at least half an eye on the needs of legacy users who rely on their product for.. well.. productivity.

Really frustrating that Quickparts is not supported in the new Outlook, I have switched back to the current version.

I also drag and drop e-mails to One Note, another time saving feature that is missing in the new Outlook.

Lets hope they listen to the feed back.
