    Thanks to @DerPritz on REDDIT, I found an answer/easy workaround!

    1. Outlook web email > Rightclick your email > Advanced Actions > Create Task
    2. A pane opens on the right. Rightclick the email icon link on your email > Open in To Do
    3. Another pane opens next to the previous one > Rightclick the Outlook icon Open link > Copy Link Address and paste it anywhere and that specifice email will open up!

    Now this will create a task in your Microsoft To Do everytime, but its fine for me because I dont use To Do.

    This option works perfectly fine. Thank you for sharing it.

    I find Outlook Web is a half baked version of Gmail in many ways (getting URL, embed emails in other tools...)
    They really need to bring the level up.
