What replaces the "Edit Message" button in the New Outlook?

This is terrible news - I work in a team, we NEED this ability. Do we have any idea when it will be restored?

i need this to update my boss on what I have done with the particular email.

Apart from toggling between new and old Outlook I found this works well:

• select Forward in the message you need to edit,
• key in your notes
• save as draft
• move it to your inbox or folder

This keeps your original message and notes in one place, maintains all the code and details of the original message and you don't have to send it anywhere to save it.

Now it´s November 2024 - and this function still missing - so turned immediately back to old version :-(

Any updates Microsoft ?

I also find this feature useful as the sender does not often use a useful subject heading. I change this to ensure that I know exactly what the email is regarding when looking through a large list of them and prioritising my workload. It's also useful to use as a filing tool so you can group emails and drag and drop them into the correct folder.

I echo what others have said, I will not migrate to the new Outlook until this Classic feature is implemented.
