I recently switched over to the New Outlook, the most updated version. I am no longer able to CTRL+F to duplicate emails, a tool I often used. Is there a way to do this now? (without highlighting, copy and pasting).

    The answer here by the moderator doesn't help. We are wanting to duplicate a draft email, not copy a sent or received email. We previously were able to have a draft email ready to go that we need to copy to multiple people as individual emails.

    You would put the cursor in the To or Subject field and click CTRL+F and a copy of the draft email would pop up. This ONE-CLICK feature was extremely helpful when needing to send an email to 30 different people with only one slight change in the body of the email, and when you don't want all of them to stack in the same conversation feed.

    Now, CTRL+F has changed to be a forward of a saved/sent email.

    Please submit the feedback that we need this feature back.

    Dear Sarah,

    Good day!

    Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are glad to assist!

    Based on your description regarding "How to Duplicate Emails In New Outlook? CTRL+F doesnt work." After thorough research and testing, I found that there is no built-in feature in New Outlook that allows you to duplicate emails using the CTRL+F shortcut. However, you can still duplicate emails by right-clicking on the email you want to duplicate and selecting "Copy" from the context menu. Then, right-click on the folder where you want to duplicate the email and select "Paste" from the context menu. It has been concluded that the feature you are inquiring about is not yet available. However, thank you so much for bringing this to our attention, your suggestion is very helpful, and I believe it could make the use of New Outlook even better. We will surely raise your concerns to our Product Development Team and hopefully this can be included in the future updates. In the meantime, we sincerely recommend you post your concern as an idea to our Outlook feedback site via Outlook · Community (microsoft.com) our Product Development Team are committed to enhancing the customer experience by continually examining suggestions to include in the design and development of future product upgrades based on your suggestions. Hopefully your suggestion will help many other people in the future. Customers’ feedbacks are always valuable for us. Thanks for your precious time and your understanding would be highly appreciated. Have a nice day!

    Best regards,
