Since Outlook 365 was updated I can't drag my email to create a calendar event. I do this nearly every day (often multiple times). Bring it back please!!!!

    Outlook has definitely gone backward! The setup of the screen is terrible, the functionality is even worse!!!! Microsoft... If you're not making an improvement, don't update it. This format is archaic!

    Check out this video for "new outlook" explaining how to drag and drop emails into To Do or Calendar. Its in the top right of the screen now.

    When I drag and drop from my email to calendar, it creates the calendar item, but no longer includes all the text from the original email. I like the continuity because it helps me keep track of tasks for that particular event.
