I like to open unread emails in a new window vs the email window. It sometimes works by double clicking but not very often. Is there a trick I'm missing?

    Hi Ashraf,

    I am trying out the new Outlook as of Feb 23rd, 2024. In the image that you provided in Customize actions. I do not see those options at all.

    I want my emails or attachment to always open in a new window instead of it opening within the desktop or web application.

    For example, I can double click on the email to open in a new window. However, any attachment like pdf files are opening within Outlook

    That is not a solution! It is just extra work!

    I want emails to always open in an external window. Just add the setting!

    I just hate your recent changes! Outlook has lost ALL appeal that remained.

    I'm actively persuading our administration to leave Office already. All your changes are ****.

    How do I get to Message Surface. When I click on Customize Actions, I only get Quick Actions.
